General Information
High quality DNA and RNA are a central success factor when entrusting ATLAS Biolabs with SNP genotyping or expression profiling services. ATLAS Biolabs offers to carry out extraction of nucleic acids from various human sources and animal tissues for all customers who do not want to spend their time in these routine procedures.
Quality Control
ATLAS Biolabs is certified according to the international
standards ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 13485. Our production processes are subject to rigorous quality control at all steps:
- RNA quality is verified on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer by
calculating RIN (RNA integrity number) values. RNA quantity
is determined photometrically. In addition, OD260/280 and
OD 260/230 ratios are measured.
-
DNA quality is verified on a standard agarose gel. DNA quantity is determined photometrically. In addition, OD260/280 and OD 260/230 ratios are measured.
Reporting
