What we need from you
- 2 µL of sample in a labeled tube (any size/type) – be sure sample buffer contains not more than 7 mM KCl, 20 mM Phosphate Buffer, 20 mM Guanidine-HCl, 80 mM NaCl, or 20 mM Acetate as high salt concentrations will cause electrophoresis failure.
**We will not be responsible for electrophoresis failures due to improperly quantitated samples or samples in buffer with high salt concentrations.
Once we have received your samples
We will run the samples here at our facility at 300 George Street, Room 2127.
Once the analysis is complete, we will email you a report that includes the gel image, electropherogram & Peak Table
Turnaround time for this service is approximately 24 hours.
Agilent Technologies TapeStation 2200
