Human Viral PCR Panels Now Offered for Research Biologic Screening
August 10, 2009 – As part of the continued expansion of our Research Animal Diagnostic Services portfolio, we now offer Human Viral PCR Panels for the precautionary screening of your research biologics. These panels can help to ensure that your biologics are free of human infectious agents that can adversely affect your in vivo research.
To help provide the most accurate results, our Human Viral PCR service incorporates TaqMan® PCR technologies. We incorporate proprietary Spike and Nucleic Acid Recovery controls and traditional positive and negative template controls to prevent false-positive results. In order to limit the potential for cross contamination, we extract your samples in their own group, independent from any other institution.

Please note that this service is available for research purposes only.
