CD Genomics is the pioneer in genomics research. Our experts and technicians are knowledgeable and have years of experience providing Fragment Analysis Services.
Fluorescent dyes are incorporated into the DNA fragment using fluorescence-labeled primers. An internal lane standard that ranges from 20-600 bases (Genescan 600 LIZ) is added to each sample for precise sizing of each fragment adjusting for lane to lane variation. A distinct advantage to the fluorescence-based system is the availability of four dyes allowing the multiplexing of multiple samples in a single lane. Eight samples can reliably be multiplexed in each well of a 96-well plate allowing hundreds of loci to be analyzed in a single day.
Our team can rapidly size DNA fragments, such as, microsatellites (random 2-6 base pair repeats) and AFLPs (amplified fragment length polymorphisms). The ABI 3730xl DNA Analyzer allows for the use of a fluorescence-based detection system that automates the process.
CD Genomics offers various solutions, from genome-wide association studies on tens of thousands of samples to single SNP interrogations of several hundred individuals. Our experts and technicians are knowledgeable and have years of experience providing Fragment Analysis Services.
