How does Ion Torrent NGS work?

Ion Torrent NGS exploits the fact that addition of a dNTP to a DNA polymer releases a hydrogen ion. We measure the pH change resulting from those hydrogen ions using semiconductors, simultaneously measuring millions of such changes to determine the sequence of each fragment.

 

The semiconductor approach—unlike optics or modified nucleotides used in other NGS technologies—helps you implement a fast and simple workflow that can scale according to your clinical research needs across multiple applications including oncology, reproductive health, infectious disease, inherited disease, and more. 

 

Our targeted sequencing approach introduces a PCR-based sequence enrichment step using Ion AmpliSeq technology that focuses on genes or even genetic variants of interest; a good example is the targeting of oncogenes and tumor suppressors in a cancer research study.
