PhiRx™ Indexed Control

PhiRx™ Indexed Control is an easy, drop-in spike-in control to maximize the performance of XLEAP-SBS chemistry on high-throughput Illumina platforms. By color-balancing both sequencing reads and barcodes, PhiRx improves signal uniformity, boosts data quality, and helps recover reads that would otherwise be lost as “undetermined.”

+ Optimizes index diversity for XLEAP sequencing
+ Seamless spike-in alternative to Illumina PhiX Control v3
+ Corrects color balance issues in low-diversity and small batch runs

PhiRx provides diversity in both index and insert reads and is supplied at the same size and price point as Illumina’s PhiX controls, making adoption straightforward for existing workflows.
