Which Infinium BeadChip types can be scanned using the NextSeq 550?

The NextSeq 550 has both sequencing and array scanning capabilities.

The iScan can image the complete Infinium array product portfolio; whereas, the NextSeq 550 currently supports the following select BeadChip types only.

BeadChip	Scan time per BeadChip	No. of samples	Scan time per sample
Infinium MethylationEPIC	40 minutes	8	5 minutes
Infinium CytoSNP-850K	40 minutes	8	5 minutes
Infinium HumanCytoSNP-12	40 minutes	12	3.3 minutes
Infinium HumanKaryomap-12	40 minutes	12	3.3 minutes

The Infinium Karyomap v2 (sold and supported by Vitrolife) is compatible with both iScan and NextSeq 550.
