Prices shown below are estimates based on typical project. According to UT System and UT Austin policy, the GSAF bills for actual expenses can vary with the size and scope of each project.     

Sequencing prices per Run, Lane and by Number of Reads

Run Types Available for purchasing Number of reads

(Purchasing by number of reads is only for customers using unique dual indices (UDI's) or those who select the GSAF to prepare the libraries) The GSAF always attempts it’s best to hit target number of reads, but this is NEVER guaranteed for USER prepared libraries.

NOTE: Cost per read example is for planning purposes only and will vary depending on the library type submitted for sequencing

The GSAF does not guarantee read counts but we will try our best to meet customer request when we prepare the libraries, however we will not make up any read counts for customer prepared libraries.
