is a DNA sequencer which is manufactured by 454 Life Science Corporation and enables pyrosequencing to be performed. It comprises both optics and fluidics subsystems, which are
controlled by a computer subsystem. The fluidics subsystem ensures accurate reagent dispensing. It consists of a reagents cassette (which holds the reagent containers), a sipper manifold, pumps, valves, and debubblers. The fluidics subsystem flows the sequencing reagents across the wells of the PicoTiterPlate device, and moves the spent reagents from the PicoTiterPlate device to the waste receptacle. The optics subsystem consists of a CCD camera and a camera controller. The camera captures the light emitted in the wells of the PicoTiterPlate device during each step of the sequencing cycle, and sends the digital images to the computer subsystem for processing. The computer controls the other Sequencer subsystems, and processes the digital images sent by the camera to extract the DNA sequence information.
