Apple showcases Oxford Nanopore in M3 silicon chip launch
31 October 2023
Oxford Nanopore Technologies plc (LSE: ONT) ("Oxford Nanopore"),
the company delivering a new generation of nanopore-based molecular
sensing technology, was showcased in Apple Inc.'s global product
launch on Monday. Apple positioned Oxford Nanopore's DNA/RNA
sequencing technology as a companion platform that can run on Apple
devices equipped with its new M3 silicon chips, supporting broad
access to biological insights in scientific research, health,
agriculture and industry.
In a blog post , Apple said that its latest M3 silicon chip is
now even faster and more powerful to support improved nanopore
sequencing, seamlessly integrating with Oxford Nanopore's onboard
MinKNOW software to run and analyse DNA/RNA reads from the
small-format Oxford Nanopore sequencing devices, the MinION and
PromethION 2 Solo. Both products rely on external computing power
to process the electrical signals from the nanopore platform.
The upgrade means that anyone with an M3-enabled Apple product,
including the Macbook Pro(TM) and iMac(TM), will be able to access
the same high-definition sequencing data with the MinION or P2 Solo
alongside their Apple device. This further enhances the experience
over M1 or M2 users and supports future improvements in nanopore
sequencing data outputs. The sequencing data is then turned into
usable insight through a range of software applications. Oxford
Nanopore's higher-output devices that include onboard computing,
including the GridION and PromethION 24 and 48, will continue to be
powered by NVIDIA's A-series towers.
The new M3 chips' compute capacity can process thousands of
inputs at once and in real time - similar to processing 6,000
conversations with Siri simultaneously. Pairing the M3 chip-enabled
products with Oxford Nanopore's affordable and accessible MinION
and P2 Solo sequencing devices has the potential to enable more
global communities to access faster, richer biological data,
powered by the latest machine learning technology.
Gordon Sanghera, CEO of Oxford Nanopore, commented:
"We are incredibly proud to be showcased by Apple as a
complementary technology that can seamlessly integrate with Apple's
new silicon chips, which is even faster and more powerful to
support real-time nanopore DNA/RNA sequencing. Powered by Apple's
M3 silicon chips, we are one step closer to achieving our vision of
enabling the analysis of anything by anyone, anywhere by making it
possible for more scientists around the world to access real-time,
data rich DNA/RNA insights with only a MinION or P2 Solo and an
iMac or Macbook Pro."

About Oxford Nanopore Technologies plc:
Oxford Nanopore Technologies' goal is to bring the widest
benefits to society through enabling the analysis of anything, by
anyone, anywhere. The company has developed a new generation of
nanopore-based sensing technology that is currently used for
real-time, high-performance, accessible, and scalable analysis of
DNA and RNA. The technology is used in more than 120 countries, to
understand the biology of humans, plants, animals, bacteria,
viruses and environments as well as to understand diseases such as
cancer. Oxford Nanopore's technology also has the potential to
provide broad, high impact, rapid insights in a number of areas
including healthcare, food and agriculture.
