Extended Emergency Closure


In case of emergency closure of the Biomolecular Core Lab for an extended period of time, our colleagues at the University of Delaware Sequencing Center will provide sequencing (both full and run only) services to AIDHC investigators. Please note that the UD sequencing facility is not CLIA certified.



For Sequencing, please follow the steps below:

  1. Label your samples neatly and legibly. Keep in mind that items tend to shift during travel. Please make sure that if your tubes get out of order, the person on the other end can easily place them back in order.
  2. Complete a BCL submission sheet. Include your email address so that you can receive you results electronically.
  3. FedEx your samples and submission sheet to:

  4.     Delaware Biotechnology Institute room 246
        15 Innovation Way
        Newark, DE 19711
         
        Attn: Bruce Kingham

  5. Contact Bruce Kingham. Let him know to expect a sample delivery.
