Need enlightening of ION TORRENT (AB) - (Sep/18/2011 )

Hi everybody...


I just wondering somebody can give me the clue of my problem. My laboratory is going to purchase the sequencer (ION Torrent by AB). But, poorly the sole agent of my regional gives the very expensive price. currently, i live in South East Asia.


Does anybody know about the price in its origin manufacture (US) ?

Your responses are kindly appreciated

the instrument is $49,500. server is ~$16,500.

one-touch system is $5,000.

the cost of the chip (and reagents, i think) is ~$500-800/run.

or so they said at the presentation.
