VA/VMRF Microarray & NGS Core

Services we provide:

Roche 454 Sequencing
Combination of long reads, exceptional accuracy, and high throughput sequencing. GS Data Analysis software for de novo assembly, reference mapping, and amplicon variant analysis. Applications include whole genome sequencing,  targeted resequencing, metagenomics, and transcriptome sequencing.

Fluidigm Access Array System
Parallel amplification of 48 targets from 48 samples, in effect generating 2304 sequencing-ready bar-coded amplicons, in just a few hours.

Affymetrix Microarrays / Nimblegen Arrays
RNA expression profiling in multiple prokaryotic and eukaryotic species. DNA genetic analyses such as single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assays, resequencing, loss-of-heterozygosity, comparative genomic hybridization, whole genome transcription factor localization, whole genome location analysis by ChIP-on-chip, promoter arrays and mitochondrial mutation detection.

Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer / NanoDrop
Quality control of submitted samples and labeled probes.
