UW Biotechnology Center DNA Sequencing Facility

DNA Sequencing Facility

We are open for business! We are happy to be back. During Phase 1, we will be operating at reduced capacity. We will make every effort to keep turnaround times short as we understand there are many projects that have been waiting. We appreciate your patience and business. The UW Biotechnology Center is following University guidelines regarding COVID-19.

Please refer to the side panel for our current sample submission process.

The UW Biotech Center DNA Sequencing Core Facility is a state of the art molecular biology lab. We are constantly advancing our techniques and knowledge base to bring you the best possible resources for your research needs. We thrive on collaborations for new and exciting projects as well as providing the basic data that drives your day to day research.

Unless otherwise specified, all data and reagents distributed by the University of Wisconsin Biotechnology Center DNA Sequencing Facility are intended for research purposes only. They are not intended nor certified for diagnostic or clinical use. Clinical services are provided through our collaboration with the UW Collaborative Genomics Core.
