They generally did this by increasing the movie length and finding polymerase that would last longer. This year they claim to double the throughput and reduce the movie time. I wonder if they are increasing the polymerase speed? This is a much needed improvement since it will increase the throughput per instrument per year. Before the instrument throughput was generally the same because even though the throughput per run doubled you also doubled the movie time so it took twice as long. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
