GENE PANELS
SOLID TUMORS AND HAEMATOLOGICAL TUMORS (STHT)
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
EDTA tube
10 ml (min. 3 ml)
Room temperature
DNA from various tissues > DNA
Microtube* or 96 well plate
See test details/specifications
Room temperature
FFPE block of various tissues > DNA
Paraffin block (in cassette)
Representative block ; Tumor load preferentially >10% ; To be processed by our pathology department (microtome section needed)
Room temperature
FFPE section of various tissues > DNA
Microtube*
Min. 1x 10 µm section (up to 2 mm³ tissue) ; Tumor load preferentially >10%
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: 6 ng/µl
A minimum concentration of 6 ng/µl is required, however succesfull experiments are possible below this limit. Low concentrated samples are vacuum concentrated to increase library prep success rate.
Minimum DNA quantity
DNA from various tissues
Minimum: 10 ng
Below 10 ng input, success rate is very low. Please provide us with as much as material as possible (300 ng preferred).

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.
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.

Your experiment starts
Now it is up to us... We will start your experiment as soon as possible.
When expedited, the turn-around-time (TAT) is 1 month
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.
