RNA Quality Assessment - User Instructions

Sample Registration:

Users need to register their samples through using our on-line form. Please make sure to read the instructions carefully and to fill the form completely before submitting it to us.

Please email completed forms to gegf.tapestation@gmail.com, or you can fill in a hard copy form when you arrive at the facility.

How to Bring Samples:

Please bring your samples within quantitative range of the assay: we will NOT dilute your sample. Only 1 ul of sample is required for the the standard assay, and 2ul for the high sensitivity assay, but we ask that you provide extra sample.

8 or less samples can be brought in tubes or plates. 9 or more samples must be brought in plates in column format.

IMPORTANT

Your RNA samples will be subjected to heat treatment for this protocol, degrading them in the process. Samples will be disposed after processing. Please DO NOT provide us with all your sample, only an aliquot.
