Access Array™ Target-Specific Primers
Key Application: Targeted Resequencing

The new Access Array Target-Specific Primers, when used with the Fluidigm Access Array System, allow fast, simple, and inexpensive preparation of up to 480 amplicons per sample at a time.* This capability is ideal for analysis of large sample sets across focused genomic regions to better understand human genetic variation. The primers allow you to quickly and specifically amplify the target of interest, incorporate sample-specific barcodes, and add sequencer-specific adaptors—all at the same time. This bypasses traditional library preparation altogether.

With the new Access Array Target-Specific Primers, you can increase the number of amplicons per sample by 10X compared to our traditional solution. In conjunction with our Access Array Barcode Library for Illumina sequencers, up to 384 unique samples can be multiplexed per sequencing run. This helps capture the maximum output of your sequencers and provides the broadest coverage possible for your human genetic variation studies.

In addition, using the Access Array Barcode Libraries developed for the Illumina, Roche, and Ion Torrent sequencers allows researchers to test the same amplicon pools and to cross-validate sequencing results across different NGS platforms.

  • Study only your regions of interest—custom-designed primer sets
  • Increase throughput and scalability—multiplex capability allows up to 480 amplicons per sample
  • Save time and cost—amplicon tagging bypasses traditional library preparation


*Target multiplex option is currently available for Illumina sequencers only.
