KIGene- Genetic Analysis and Spatial Biology

 

Overview of Services

KIGene is a well-established core facility that offers genetic analyses, covering Sanger DNA sequencing, gene expression and genotyping, as well as spatial biology and epigenetic analysis.

We provide flexible service levels. For “hands-on” we offer theoretical and technical start up assistance and the users may after that book and operate the instruments themselves. For “hands-off”, the users supply the starting materials and we perform the analysis.

We charge “fee-for-service”. All projects and individual samples are processed in incoming order.

 

Spatial Biology

We provide:

  • Spatial profiling of RNA and proteins on tissue sections using nanoString GeoMx and CosMx platforms
  • Light microscopy
  • Cryosectioning

 

Genetic Analysis

We provide:

  • Sanger DNA sequencing services with turn-around time within the same day
  • Genotyping (SNP and fragment length analysis)
  • Gene expression analysis
  • Copy number variation
  • Rare target detection
  • miRNA profiling
  • DNA methylation analysis
  • Quantity and quality determination of RNA, DNA, protein and dye incorporation
  • User support and training courses
