Frequently Asked Questions
- 01
Assay Development: 4x96 well plates or 1x384 well plate with 70 ul of DNA at 5ng/ul
Previously Developed Assays: 70 ul of DNA at 5ng/ul
- 02
For a standard project, the minimum is 384 samples.
For AgriPlex Connect projects, we require a minimum of 192 samples.
- 03
You can submit samples or request services at any time of the year. Please note that the lab is closed on weekends, so nobody will be here to receive your samples until Monday.
For services through the AgriPlex Connect program, we accept samples whenever the defined deadline is for each specific crop and livestock in order to receive the program's benefits. We typically run one or two of these panels per month. Read more on that here.
- 04
We are aware that supply chain issues can happen. If you are unable to submit your samples in the listed plasticware or seals, please contact our Technical Support
Submitting samples in the wrong plasticware can delay sample processing, as we have to recalibrate our robotics platform. Our team will try to work with you to find a suitable solution.
- 05
Please submit all DNA samples at a concentration of 5ng/ul at a 70ul/sample volume. Please contact Technical Support support@agriplexgenomics.com if your DNA falls outside of the suggested concentration and volume.
- 06
Yes. We suggest sending us 1 or 2 plates of samples that we will use to develop your assay. It is vital that these pilot samples be representative of the genetic diversity that you will be using your final panel on. It is also important to submit the same sample type that you will be processing with your final assay. If you have questions, please reach out to Technical Support support@agriplexgenomics.com
- 07
Yes. For larger or complicated indels, contact us to discuss.
- 08
25-5000 SNPs.
