Can Amp-Seq technology be used in human clinical diagnostics?

AMPSEQ-001
Currently, we are unable to support human clinical diagnostic applications.

Does Amp-Seq provide data analysis software to generate genotype calls?

AMPSEQ-001
Biosearch Technologies provides an analysis pipeline (the BiosearchCaller software), compatible with the Amp-Seq technology, to produce genotypes from the sequencing data. The software can be accessed via a cloud system and our technical team will support the deployment and initial setup.

Have you produced proteins at scale?

COMCEL-008

Our customers have reported growth of ClearColi strains in a 5 litre fermenter and shown optical density levels in excess of 150, and that some defoaming agents (particularly silicone-based defoamers) are beneficial while other defoaming agents such as polypropylene glycol may inhibit cell growth.

There are transformation protocols for chemically competent cells that do not include a heat shock. Do I need to heat shock my competent cells?

We have not tested alternative transformation protocols extensively. You can avoid the heat shock step, but it is highly likely that your transformation efficiencies will decrease.

Are Endura High-Yield Electrocompetent Cells classified as genetically modified organisms (GMO)?

COMCEL-017
Depending on the definition of GMO, yes, they are GMO as they were constructed by methods outside of E. coli conjugations or viral transductions. However, they do not contain DNA from organisms other than E. coli.

What if I don’t have a fluorimeter? How else can I monitor the reaction?

Amplified products can also be monitored by viewing the reaction on an agarose gel or by measuring the turbidity of the reaction at OD600.

Can I use other dyes besides the Green Fluorescent Dye available in the LavaLAMP™ DNA Master Mix with Dye?

Yes. Syto-13 (Molecular Probes) and EvaGreen (Biotium) have both been tested with the LavaLAMP DNA Master Mix and they perform well.
