A unique method for immortalizing precious, rare or
depleted DNA sample collections
At Source BioScience LifeSciences we understand that
access to large amounts of good-quality DNA for genomic assays can
be a serious limiting factor in accelerating research efforts. The
revolutionary Whole Genome Amplification (WGA) method offered
by Source BioScience LifeSciences overcomes the limitations by
allowing researchers to rescue minute quantities of DNA, and
provides greater flexibility to work with small samples and
archived material.
Turning nanograms into micrograms in just a few
days
Whole Genome Amplification offered by Source BioScience
LifeSciences utilizes the leading Multiple Displacement
Amplification (MDA) method. This innovative technology produces
amplified DNA with comprehensive coverage of all gene sequences and
with unprecedented low bias. This revolutionary method allows
scientists at Source BioScience LifeSciences to rescue minute
quantities of DNA from a range of starting materials. Stringent QC
controls allow a thorough assessment of the amplified DNA for
usability for downstream genotyping applications such as,
microsatellites, Taqman assays, SNP microarray assays, all of which
are available through Source BioScience LifeSciences.
The specialist team at Source
BioScience LifeSciences has extensive experience working with many
different starting materials from academic researchers, government
institutes, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies worldwide.
WGA has been used successfully to immortalize samples for use in a
wide range of applications in target discovery/ validation,
toxiocogenomics, translational research, pharmacogenomics,
diagnostic, forensics, epidemiology, oncology research and
cytogenetics.
