Extended Data Fig. 2: Nanopore flow cell versions and yields.
From: Rapid MinION profiling of preterm microbiota and antimicrobial-resistant pathogens
Yield and length metrics for Nanopore runs. Flow cell for sample P8 (2D) was used for two experiments: (a) Initial Metrichor basecalled run which was abandoned due to network lag and (b) Local basecalled run which was used for subsequent analysis. Runs 1-8 were performed using an earlier version of MinKNOW (ONT’s control software) which classified reads into “pass” and “fail” according to quality. Runs 9-14 used a later version of MinKNOW which removes the quality distinction, however some reads can still fail basecalling. The low yield for run 10 (P49A) is due to the flow cell having a low number of active pores at QC.
