Each Mix2Seq Kit includes 96 pre-barcoded tubes and covers 96 sequencing reactions upfront.

No online ordering required — just send your tubes
Simply fill the tubes and drop them off or ship them. No sample submission or ordering workflow needed.

Ultra-fast results — next business day delivery
Receive high-quality sequencing data the next day: by 12 pm CET with NightXpress or 6 pm CET with the standard service.

Team-friendly — share or transfer kits & data
Kits can be shared within your group or fully transferred to colleagues, including all rights.

Mix2Seq offers a streamlined, prepaid solution for sequencing premixed samples in tubes.

With 96 barcoded matrix tubes and no additional order steps, Mix2Seq enables fast, convenient Sanger sequencing directly from your prepared samples. Benefit from reliable read quality, quick turnaround times, and a sequencing workflow built for efficiency.

4 little steps to optimum results

 

smartseq_step1 Your template should consist of 5 µl purified DNA in either of the following concentrations:
Plasmid DNA
up to 15kbp: 50-100 ng/µl
PCR products
: 150-300 bp: 1 ng/µl; 300-1000 bp: 5 ng/ µl; 1000 - 3000 bp 10 ng/µl
smartseq_step2 Add µl of your SeqPrimer with a concentration of 5 pmol/µl (5 µM).
smartseq_step3 Ensure that the total volume of your DNA / primer mix is at least 10 µl.
smartseq_step4 Pipet your premixed sample in one of the Mix2Seq tubes and seal the tube with the blue or yellow lid from the enclosed cap pad.


Do not forget to note the barcode number on the side of the tubes before you send us your samples!


Conditions

DNA templates must be purified. Sequencing reactions cannot be repeated and all reactions will be charged. For samples containing difficult-to-read streches (GC-rich, hairpin structurs...) we recommend our TubeSeq Supreme Service.

 

 


Please consider optimal primer conditions:

 

  • Primers must not contain phosphorylation or fluorescent dyes
  • The optimum primer length is between 16-25 bases
  • The primer melting temperature (Tm) should be 50 - 62°C
  • The GC content of the primer should be 35-60%
  • Ideally one G or C should be located at the 3' primer end
  • The number of 3' Gs or Cs should not exceed 2 Gs or Cs
  • If possible, avoid >3 identical bases in a row in the sequence

 


Sample storage:

Premixed samples are not getting stored.


Data storage:

Sequencing data are provided in the following file formats by default and are available online for 6 months:

  • .ab1 files - ABI trace files with all available raw data
  • .scf files -Trace files with base calls and quality values
  • .seq files - Clipped & unclipped FASTA sequences
  • .phd.1 files - Contains base call and quality information
  • .pdf quality report - Trace file with quality scores
  • FASTA file with all sequences

 

Important information:

Specified delivery times are mainly depending on sample arrival time in the lab.

For many European cities we are providing coordinated pick-up and transport services using Eurofins DropBoxes ensuring on time delivery in the lab.

However, these logistics services may also be subject to force majeure or unpredictable changes caused by e.g. strikes, accidents, storms, floods. In such events, Eurofins Genomics cannot guarantee the stated data delivery time and is not responsible for delays caused by logistics services.

Additionally, our general terms and conditions (GTCs) apply.
