Abstract
Improved multi-cell nanopore-based sequencing chips and methods can employ formation, characterization, calibration, and/or normalization techniques. For example, various methods may include one or more steps of performing physical checks of cell circuitry, forming and characterizing a lipid layer on the cells, performing a zero point calibration of the cells, forming and characterizing nanopores on the lipid layers of each cell, performing a sequencing operation to accumulate sequencing signals from the cells, normalizing those sequencing signals, and determining bases based on the normalized sequencing signals.
