- Seeking a platform with best-in-class accuracy to analyze samples before and after spaceflight.
- Inspiration4 visited space for 3.5 days and returned safely with abundant precious samples.
- Mapping cfDNA helps us understand what happens to the body so we can mitigate risks.
- Element data quality is on par with competitor data quality, and in some cases better, e.g.
- >Q30 all the way out to 150 nucleotides, data suggests it could extend much further
- High mapping rate – very good, well above 99%, key to mapping what cell type affected
- Plan to utilize AVITI to support sample analysis for other upcoming space missions
