Accurate sample handling is commensurate with the generation of premium quality molecular data. Accordingly, the MGC uses the Beckman Biomek FX liquid handling robot for automated sample handling. For experiments which are sensitive to DNA concentration, a portion of each DNA sample will be used for quantification using PicoGreen^® dsDNA Quantitation.

Formal QC processes have been implemented to ensure delivery of data that meets MGC criteria and clients' requirements. MGC standards and customer sample replicates are added to each genotyping experiment. As a project progresses, standard and replicate samples will be checked for concordance.

We offer the following services:

• Genotyping
• DNA re-sequencing
• Gene Expression
• Copy Number Variation
• DNA Methylation Profiling
• DNA/RNA quantitation and quality analysis
