NUCLEIC ACID QUANTIFICATION

Our facility offers several options for nucleic acid quantification and library validation/quality checking.

FLUOROMETRY

The Qubit Fluorometer measures concentrations of DNA, RNA, and proteins with accuracy and sensitivity that exceed spectrophotometric methods. The instrument is perfect for quantifying samples for applications such as real-time PCR and next generation sequencing

MICROCHIP ELECTROPHORESIS

Microchip electrophoresis takes conventional agarose gel electrophoresis a step further. Our Shimadzu MultiNA System allows high throughput DNA and RNA sizing and quantification with high resolution and sensitivity. The MultiNA can separate fragments with size differences as little as 10 bp and detect DNA fragments smaller than 100 bp. The system displays data numerically as electropherograms to simplify data presentation and analysis.
