  1. *Includes Illumina DNA library preparation (fixed cost), sequencing run
  2. *Excludes ChIP reagents, Illumina GAII sequencer, HR and data storage
  3. *For a non-barcoded sample, the cost per sample is $498.23 USD as of October 2008.
  4. **Assumes optimal mapping values for a lane run on a GA II (10 million mapped reads)
