    Abstract: A kit for use with a nucleic acid sequencing instrument can include a plurality of combinatorial barcodes sequences meeting the following criteria: each of the combinatorial barcode sequences comprise a plurality of iterations of a sequence motif, where the sequence motif comprises a first nucleotide base from a first group of nucleotide bases followed by a second nucleotide base from a second group of nucleotide bases, the first group and the second group differing from each other; and the plurality of combinatorial barcode sequences is at least 1,000,000 different barcode sequences.

    Abstract: Methods for analyzing signal data generated by sequencing of a polynucleotide strand using a pH-based method of detecting nucleotide incorporation(s). In an embodiment, the method comprises formulating a function that models the output signal of a representative empty well of a reactor array. A time transformation is applied to the empty well function to obtain a time-warped empty well function. The time-warped empty well function is fitted to an output signal from the loaded well representative of a flow that results in a non-incorporation event in the loaded well. The fitted time-warped empty well function can then be used to analyze output signals from the loaded well for other flows.

    Abstract: In some embodiments, the disclosure relates generally to methods, as well as compositions, systems, kits and apparatuses, for performing nucleotide incorporation, comprising: (a) providing a surface including one or more reaction sites containing a polymerase and a nucleic acid template that has, or is hybridized to, an extendible end; (b) performing a first nucleotide flow by contacting one or more of the reaction sites with a first solution including one or more types of terminator nucleotide; (c) incorporating at least one type of terminator nucleotide at the extendible end of the nucleic acid template contained within at least one of the reaction sites using the polymerase; and (d) detecting a non-optical signal indicating the nucleotide incorporation using a sensor that is attached or operatively linked to the at least one reaction site.

    Abstract: A method for sequencing a polynucleotide sample having a barcode sequence includes: introducing a series of nucleotides to the polynucleotide sample according to a predetermined order of nucleotide flows; obtaining a series of signals resulting from the introducing of nucleotides to the polynucleotide sample; and resolving the series of signals over the barcode sequence to render a flowspace string, wherein the flowspace string is a codeword of an error-correcting code that is (i) designed based on and adapted for use with the predetermined order of nucleotide flows, and (ii) capable of distinguishing any codeword in the error-correcting code from the other codewords in the error-correcting code in the presence of zero, one, and two errors.
