Applications & Services

Identification of genetic variations, single base mutations, insertions and deletions
Profiling of viral communities & outbreak monitoring
Our standard Variant Analysis service includes detection and annotation of germline single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs), insertions and deletions (InDel). 
Optional rRNA depletion service available for enrichment of RNA viruses
For optional DNA or RNA isolation service, please refer to our DNA and RNA isolation guide. 
We do not accept samples with higher biosafety level than S2. GMOs are only accepted with S1 level. 
Services are performed in ISO17025 certified labs in Europe 
Data transfer via secure FTP
