Sample types

We aim to keep the list with sample types updated. However, if you believe we offer this gene panel on other sample types, or if you have a very specific sample type you'd like to evaluate : please contact the corresponding persons for either diagnostic or research purposes.

* Microtube can be  a either a cryovial or eppendorf tube (0,5 ; 1,5 or 2 ml). Please consider the quality of the tube used (nuclease free ; free of RNA/DNA ; sterile ; LoBind) according to application needed.  

Blood > DNA

DBS / Guthrie card / Punch in microtube*

Min. 1 punch

Room temperature

Blood > DNA

EDTA tube

10 ml (min. 3 ml)

Room temperature

Cells of various tissue origins > DNA

Microtube* with cell pellet or on lysis buffer

> 5 million cells

Dry ice

DNA from various tissues > DNA

Microtube* or 96 well plate

See test details/specifications

Room temperature

Tissue of various origins > DNA

Cryovial containing stabilizer (eg. AllProtect) or tissue homogenized on lysis buffer

Application/tissue specific (contact us)

Dry ice

Extra requirements

Absorbance ratio A260/A230 - Minimum
DNA from various tissues

Minimum: 1,5

Lower values are indicative for indicative for EDTA, carbohydrate, chaotropic salts (and also protein) contamination

Absorbance ratio A260/A280 - Minimum
DNA from various tissues

Minimum: 1,5

Lower values are indicative for indicative for protein, phenol or other aromatic compound contamination

Elution buffer : nuclease free water, Tris-HCl or TE
DNA from various tissues

:

Please use nuclease free elution buffers, however this assay is compatible with either water, Tris-HCl as TE.

Minimum DNA concentration
DNA from various tissues

Minimum: 7,7 ng/µl

A minimum concentration of 7,7 ng/µl is required, however succesfull experiments are possible below this limit.

Minimum DNA quantity
DNA from various tissues

Minimum: 200 ng

We prefer delivery of at least 1 µg of DNA

Plan experiment

  1. For Diagnostics

This test is mainly performed as a diagnostic assay. In this case, please contact your General Practitioner or Clinical Geneticist (Centre for Medical Genetics of choice) to get the diagnosis started.


  1. For Research

This test can also be applied in context of research. For this, please get approval from your local ethical committee and/or make proper arrangements with your Biobank.

Please follow the steps below to start up an experiment with us.

Get in touch (ONLY FOR NEW PROJECTS)

Explain your project, so we can assist you to find the best solution.

Expect questions like :

  1. What type of sample would you like to analyze?

  2. Which elution buffer did you use?

  3. What are the expected concentrations of your samples?

  4. How many samples would you like to process?

  5. How fast do you need the results (TAT) and/or do we need to expedite?

  6. If you deviate from our sample types, are there test samples available?

  7. Are our standard deliverables ok?

  8. ...

Request quotation

Once you know which experiment you want to set up, fill out the 'Quote request' form, with the essential details of your project :

  1. Coordinates of the person to whom to address the quotation

  2. Which type of test you'd like to set up

  3. Do you require a specific deliverable?

  4. Do we need to expedite (comes at extra cost)?

  5. ...

Submit your samples

Once you agree with our terms (quote / TAT / terms & conditions)  :

  1. Fill out our sample submission form

  2. Send it via email : contact us

  3. Print out the form and include it with your samples

  4. Send your samples to us

  5. Label your tubes/plates correctly : see details here

  6. Adhere to the corresponding transport conditions listed under Sample types

  7. Indicate if we can discard your samples after completion of project

Your experiment starts

Now it is up to us... We will start your experiment as soon as possible.

  1. When expedited, the turn-around-time (TAT) is 1 month

  2. For standard requests the turn-around-time (TAT) is 2 months


The standard TAT is generally overestimated, but this extended timeframe allows us to : combine similar requests of multiple scientists and to repeat the experiment in case of issues.


Please refrain from contacting us in case the pre-agreed TAT didn't expire yet.
