Qiagen PyroMark Q96

This used Qiagen PyroMark Q96 is a higher throughput pyrosequencing system built for labs that need to process full 96 well plates of methylation, SNP, or short variant assays in a single run. It uses the same sequencing by synthesis chemistry as the smaller Q24 platform but scales output for busier research and testing environments. The unit comes from an active laboratory and is offered here in working condition. The Q96 is well suited to epigenetics core facilities, pharmacogenomics testing, and microbial typing applications where a large number of samples need sequence level, quantitative answers rather than binary calls. Labs use it to quantify methylation percentages, detect low frequency mutations, and confirm short sequence identities with high reproducibility across full plates. Pairing the instrument with Qiagen's PyroMark assay design and analysis software keeps the workflow consistent from primer design through data reporting. For laboratories scaling up pyrosequencing volume beyond what a 24 sample system can handle, this used Q96 provides an efficient upgrade path without the cost of a new unit. Buyers should plan on running validation assays with their own reagents and controls to confirm the system meets their throughput and accuracy requirements before full deployment.
