Taqman SNP Genotyping is a robust and economical method to type a small number of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms, SNPs across a study population. This is appropriate for a few samples or several thousand.

General Information

Sample Input

Genomic DNA - Normalized to 5ng/µL

Users must provide their own SNP assays or we can order the assay and bill assay supplies to your project. AZGC does not stock Taqman Assays.

Expected Results

Details

Sample Preparation Details

Sample input is gDNA normalized to 5ng/µL. We can receive your samples in 1.5-2.0mL tubes but we prefer 96-well plates. Samples which do not meet our input requirements will be subject to additional handling fees. Please contact our lab if you have questions about sample preparation.

Sample Input

To use this service, submit your templates in a 96-well reaction plate.

Expected Results

PCR product free from excess primers, dimers, DNTPs and salts which can interfere with DNA Sequencing.

Details

Sample Preparation Details

To use this service, submit your templates in a 96-well reaction plate.

The samples will need to be brought up to 100µL with molecular grade water.

To use this service as part of your DNA Sequencing workflow, simply check the radio button for "clean up" in the submission form when you submit your plate for High Volume Sequencing in iLab Operations Software.

Workflow

• Log in to iLab Operations Software and click Request Services.
• Record and attach the numbers at the end of your iLab Service ID to your samples and send or deliver to AZGC.
• Upload your sample information

Excess primers, primer dimers, dNTPs and salts are filtered out under vacuum pressure, while your purified PCR product is retained on the ultrafiltration membrane.

Accepted sample types include PCR product, plasmid DNA, phage, or BACs, cosmids and single-stranded DNA.

Provide your own sequencing primer or use our standard universal primers at no extra charge. 

AZGC Universal Primers

Samples should be eluted in (MilliQ) water. Minimum volume required:
     8µL of template per reaction
     5µL of primer per reaction

Low volume (tube) sequencing should be submitted in 1.5mL snap-cap tubes. Sample and primer must be submitted in separate tubes.
*Note: If you have more than 22 sequencing reactions it will be more cost effective to use the High Volume (plate) sequencing workflow.

High-volume sequencing should be submitted in a 96-well v-bottom plate.

PCR products should be prepared with commercially available PCR cleanup kits and eluted in (MilliQ) water to remove excess primers, nucleotides, and buffers.

Automated sample cleanup, quantification, and normalization service is available for High-volume (96-well plate) sequencing submissions - simply select these options in your iLab project request.
