A unique identification number for the design automatically generated by DesignStudio.

Assay Version

The type of AmpliSeq for Illumina assay selected when creating the design.

Species

The species selected when configuring the design.

Sample Type

The type of sample selected when configuring the design.

Max Amplicon Length

The maximum amplicon length in the final design.

Stringency

The stringency selected when configuring the design.

Number of Amplicons

The number of amplicons included in the final design.

Total target size (bp)

The number of bases in the submitted targets.

Covered Bases (bp)

The number of bases covered by the custom amplicons.

Number of Pools

The number of pools included in the final design.

Amplicons per Pool

The number of amplicons included in each pool.

Amplicon Length

The maximum, minimum, average, and median length of amplicons (in base pairs) in the design.

Percentage Coverage

The percent of target bases covered by the custom amplicons.

Concentration

The concentration at which the manufactured amplicons are produced.

3. [Optional] Select Modify Design to create a project based on the current design. See Modify the Design.
4. [Optional] Select Download Targets to export the design targets in a CSV file.
5. [Optional] Select Download Results to download the design solution in a ZIP file.

The design solution file contains all the design information generated from the project.

6. [Optional] Select Download Amplicons to download the amplicons from the current design solution.

The amplicon file is compatible with the upload tool on the Manage Targets page.

7. [Optional] Select See more solutions to view and select additional solutions that improve coverage over the current design.

The additional solutions include different combinations of stringency and number of pools that achieve different levels of coverage. When a solution is selected, it replaces all the selections made in the original design.

8. To order a design, complete the following procedure. Sometimes, a completed design is not orderable. For unorderable designs, the following options are not available and DesignStudio displays a message with information on why the design cannot be ordered.
  1. When ready to place an order, select Get Pricing.
  2. Review the final design details, and then select Finalize Design & Get Pricing. DesignStudio will redirect you to MyIllumina where you can purchase the custom assay.
