Small-Scale Fragment Analysis (microsatellite, AFLP, TRFLP and SNP)

Rate applies to submissions of less than 96 samples at a time of fluorescently labeled products for size or allele determination using the ABI 3730xl.  Fragment lengths can range from 35bp to 600bp for microsatellite samples and 15bp to 120bp for SNP samples.

*Please contact us directly if you require facility personnel to perform amplification with fluorescent primers as pricing will be affected.

$5.00/sample

High Throughput Fragment Analysis (microsatellite, AFLP, TRFLP and SNP)

Rate applies to submissions of 96 samples at a time of fluorescently labeled PCR products for size or allele determination using the ABI 3730xl.  Fragment lengths can range from 35bp to 600bp for microsatellite samples and 15bp to 120bp for SNP samples.

Nanodrop: RNA and DNA Quantitation  (up to 10 samples)

The Nanodrop uses undiluted sample in a minimum volume of 1µl and a maximum volume of 2µl which can be recovered after analysis.  Sensitivity range is from 5ng to 3700ng, making the Nanodrop useful for determining concentration of samples that may be limited in volume or that may be too dilute for accurate reading on other platforms. 

$3.00

Nanodrop: RNA and DNA Quantitation  (11-20 samples)

The Nanodrop uses undiluted sample in a minimum volume of 1µl and a maximum volume of 2µl which can be recovered after analysis.  Sensitivity range is from 5ng to 3700ng, making the Nanodrop useful for determining concentration of samples that may be limited in volume or that may be too dilute for accurate reading on other platforms. 

$5.00

Nanodrop: Protein Quantitation with standard curve (up to 10 samples)

Facility personnel will perform BCA protein assay on sample and will perform standard curve. 

$45.00

Nanodrop: Protein Quantitation with customer provided standard curve

Customer must provide standard curve information or standards for reading on Nanodrop.  Pricing is the same as for RNA and DNA quantitation. 

$3.00

Bioanalyzer: RNA, DNA, and Protein Analysis (1-12 samples/run)

To determine quality of sample prior to use in downstream applications such as microarrays, real time PCR, sequencing, and binding assays.

$40.00/run

 

 

Other Related Services

$15.00/plate

Transfer of DNA using Biomek NX

Transfer of equal volumes for each DNA sample from 96-well plate to a 96- or 384- well plate.  Price for transfer of samples to 384-well is up to four 96-well plates per one 384-well plate.  Used for setting up PCR, Real Time and sequencing reactions in bulk.

 

Transfer of equal volumes of sample from 96- or 384- well plate to multiple 96- or 384- well plates.  Price given is for transfer to four 384-well plates.

*Costs may vary slightly based on plate type needed. If multiple transfers are done at the same time, difference in charge is based on cost of additional plates.
