The
University of Michigan DNA Sequencing Core handles ONLY RESEARCH
SAMPLES,
and is primarily intended to service the U-M research community.
Within some
significant limits, we can sometimes accept sequencing samples from legitimate
research institutions elsewhere. Click here for more information. We do not perform genotyping for off-campus clients.
Please Note:
- We DO NOT accept samples from the lay public.
- We do not perform paternity testing or human
identity/relationship testing.
- We can accept only PREPARED DNA samples, not tissue or
unpurified samples.
- We perform only raw sequencing; the client is expected to
interpret the results, assemble the sequence and design any needed
primers.
There are a few minor restrictions even for members of the University
of Michigan:
- You MUST have a valid University account number.
Please ensure that start and end dates entered into our computer are accurate.
- You MUST comply with the recombinant DNA regulations as set
forth by the
Institutional Biosafety Committee (formerly known as the Biomedical
Research Review Committee or BRRC). You will be required to check a box
indicating that you are in compliance.
- The PI must have a current, valid 'umich.edu' email
address (or have an address verified by the Core Director)
