Nucleotides:
| Amount | Total ≥ 3 μg; Conc. ≥ 300 ng/μl; Volumn ≥ 10 μl |
| Integrity | For plants: RIN ≥ 7.5; For animals: RIN ≥ 8; 28S/18S ≥ 1.0; Limited or no baseline elevation |
| Purity | OD260/280 ≥ 1.8; OD260/230 ≥ 1.0; Clear peak at 260 nm |
| Note | Protein or DNA contamination is very likely to affect the measurements and the samples’ QC level. |
Tissue: Weight(dry): ≥1 g
*For tissue smaller than 5 mg, we recommend to send flash frozen(in liquid nitrogen) tissue sample.
Cell suspension: Cell count = 3×106 - 1×107
*We recommend to ship frozen cell lysate. In case that cell counts smaller than 5×105, flash frozen in liquid nitrogen is recommended, which is preferable for micro extraction.
Blood samples: Volume≥1 ml
Microorganism: Mass ≥ 1 g
Container:
2 ml centrifuge tube (Tin foil is not recommended)
Sample labeling: Group+replicate e.g. A1, A2, A3; B1, B2, B3... ...
Shipment:
1. Dry-ice: Samples need to be packed in bags and buried in dry-ice.
2.RNAstable tubes: RNA samples can be dried in RNA stabilization tube(e.g. RNAstable®) and shipped in room temperature.
