Whether you’re investigating disease mechanisms, identifying novel biomarkers, or advancing drug development, our expert team and advanced technology platforms ensure accurate, reproducible data that move your research forward.
Analytical Sample Processing
Sampled offers comprehensive sample processing services, including extraction of high-quality RNA and DNA, fractionation, normalization, stringent quality control (QC) checks, and efficient aliquoting, ensuring precise and efficient handling of diverse sample types for various downstream applications.
Sampled’s analytical sample processing workflow covers extraction, fractionation, normalization, sample processing QC, and aliquoting. Samples are accepted at room temperature or frozen, depending on the sample type. Rigorous QC ensures sample suitability for downstream analysis. Fractionation is conducted using an automated process, which also enables precise aliquoting of samples. Normalization parameters are tailored to sample characteristics and workflow demands. QC checks are performed for DNA, RNA, plasma, and serum. After these steps, samples can be directed for analysis, storage, or shipping, with logistics managed by Sampled’s expert team.
Sequencing
Sampled’s sequencing services are vital for academic, industrial, and clinical research. We offer whole genome sequencing (WGS), whole exome sequencing (WES), targeted sequencing, Sanger sequencing, RNA sequencing, methylation sequencing, and protein biomarker discovery. Our customizable services provide detailed insights and expert support for various research and diagnostic needs.
Sampled offers a comprehensive range of sequencing services, including WGS, WES, targeted sequencing, Sanger sequencing, RNA sequencing, methylation sequencing, and protein biomarker discovery. Our experienced team ensures high-quality DNA extraction and library preparation for WGS and WES, using advanced platforms like Illumina‘s NovaSeq and PacBio‘s Revio. Data analysis, with QC, can be performed in-house or shared with clients. Targeted sequencing is available with flexible platform options. Sanger sequencing is performed and analyzed by in-house experts. RNA sequencing includes robust QC and platform flexibility. Methylation sequencing uses Illumina’s NovaSeq and PacBio’s HiFi platform. Protein biomarker discovery leverages the latest technology from Olink, with data analysis performed by Sampled experts.
Microarrays
Sampled offers genotyping, transcriptome profiling, and methylation profiling arrays. Genotyping arrays assess genetic diversity and disease markers via SNPs, transcriptome arrays study gene expression, and methylation arrays explore DNA methylation’s role in gene regulation. Customized array plates enable diverse research for health and disease discoveries.
Sampled offers comprehensive sample preparation and microarray services. Microarrays are performed using advanced platforms combined with automated instruments. After array scanning, data files are generated, quality-controlled, and can be sent to our clients. Alternatively, our expert bioinformaticians offer automated data analysis to maximize data insights, providing clients with valuable results and support throughout the process.
PCR
Sampled offers comprehensive quantitative PCR (qPCR) and droplet digital (ddPCR) services, providing critical insights into gene expression and detecting structural variants. qPCR is highly sensitive and enables real-time analysis of specific DNA sequences and absolute target DNA quantification. ddPCR, with unparalleled sensitivity, detects low-abundance targets, ensuring precision in genetic research, clinical diagnosis, and environmental science.
At Sampled, our PCR services encompass both qPCR and ddPCR. For qPCR, we uphold stringent DNA and RNA handling standards, ensuring high-quality input through rigorous QC. Whether processing RNA or raw samples, we perform reverse transcription, carry out quality control, and normalize DNA concentration for optimal amplification detection. The qPCR platform is flexible, accommodating different chemistries, and supports 96- and 384-well formats for high throughput. Similarly, in ddPCR, Sampled excels in diverse sample handling with meticulous droplet generation and analysis by expert bioinformaticians, providing comprehensive insights with statistical reliability.
