Whole-genome amplification
To complement its services, deCODE offers to DNA amplification from samples with limited amounts of genomic material. This will allow you to rescue samples that you otherwise would need to exclude due to insufficient quantity without having to return to the individual for additional sample.
deCODE uses an optimized high-throughput protocol based on the Phi29 polymerase for amplifying DNA from:
- Small amounts of extracted genomic DNA
- Small amounts of blood
- Buccal samples
deCODE can amplify thousands of samples per week. The method has been validated for both microsatellite and SNP genotyping.
