Additional Info
CO1 DNA Barcoding
- Confirms the cell line species of origin
- Utilizes sequence data the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1) gene (approximately 660 basepair region)
- Complies with American National Standards Institute (ANSI) guidelines for species identification of animal cell lines
- Appropriate for less commonly-used species of origin cell lines such as Drosophila, cow, pig, Syrian hamster, ferret, or other insect and mammalian species.
Interspecies Contamination
- Checks for unique markers to identify any cross-contamination between different cell lines.
- Complies with ANSI guidelines for species identification of animal cell lines.
Sample Submission Guidelines:
Cells:
Please send in 1 cryovial per sample containing at least 1x106 cells/vial. We accept samples in cell pellet form, in growth medium, freeze medium or phosphate-buffered saline.
Tissue Samples:
For each tissue or tumor sample, please submit a 1.5 ml snap-cap or screw-cap tube with at least 30 mg of tissue (minimum 2-3 mm size).
