Expression Analysis Services

We offer a Expression Analysis Service utilizing the 3 Plaforms.

Key highlights of the service:

Please see below for further details about the service.

Sample Submission Guidelines

• Customer should submit atleast 5 ug of Total RNA or 2 ug of Samples enriched for miRNA.
• RNA concentration and quality should be quantified.
• Sample submission forms should be submitted along or before the samples are submitted. The form is available here.

mRNA Detection Platform

• Affymetrix.
• Agilent

Data Extraction

• Microarray images are scanned for a balanced view and saved in TIFF formats.
• Numerical intensities are extracted for each probes
• The results are organized which includes TIFF image files and intensity data files, which is made available to the customer in a CD.

Analysis

• We would do the image analysis and provide you with the raw intensities for all the platforms.
• Certain downstream data processing is done based on the platform, as part of the service:
  • Affymetrix data is scaled to a average intensity of 150 per chip.
  • Agilent and other 2 color channel data is normalized within array.

Additional data analysis help may be available on a case by case basis.

Pricing

Prices for sample processing do not include cost of arrays
