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.
Tissue | Recipient | Quantity | Transport | Purpose / Extract |
---|---|---|---|---|
Blood | EDTA tube | 10 ml (min. 3 ml) | Room temperature | DNA |
DNA from various tissues | Microtube* | See test details/specifications | Room temperature | DNA |
DNA from various tissues | Microtube* or 96 well plate | See test details/specifications | Room temperature | DNA |
FFPE block of various tissues | Paraffin block (in cassette) | Representative block ; Tumor load preferentially >10% ; To be processed by our pathology department (microtome section needed) | Room temperature | DNA |
FFPE section of various tissues | Microtube* | Min. 1x 10 µm section (up to 2 mm³ tissue) ; Tumor load preferentially >10% | Room temperature | DNA |
Tissue of various origins | Cryovial containing stabilizer (eg. AllProtect) or tissue homogenized on lysis buffer | Application/tissue specific (contact us) | Dry ice | DNA |
* 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.
