This product includes DNA extraction from a human saliva sample and genotyping.
Product specifications:
- Platform: Global Screening Array 3.0 Orion, using the Illumina iScan instrument.
- Data output: ~670,000 markers.
- File format: compressed raw data in .idat format; one genotype call file (GTC) per sample; tables in .txt format with calling rates for each sample and statistics for each SNP generated by the Illumina GenomeStudio software, including a) samples table (one line per sample with summary of results across all SNPs including call rate and sex QC if sex is provided) and b) final report with detailed information including genotyping calls for all samples versus all SNPs for use in downstream analysis applications (Sample ID, rsID, Chr, Position, Allele1 – Plus and Allele2 – Plus).
- Delivery time: 8 - 10 weeks (for returned batch size of 24 samples).
The product includes the ability to collect and register the sample using Hurdle’s saliva sample collection kit.
Turnaround Times: Returning a full batch size of samples will increase the chances of a quicker turnaround times please note that our turnaround times are estimations and only appilcable for batched returns
Data Transfer and Storage:
- Results can be transferred via SFTP, either using our servers or yours, according to your preference.
- In order to keep costs as low as possible, depenanting on the file size each data download will incur the 'data transfer cost'. For Global Screening Array, this is free within reason.
- Data will be kept on our servers for 60 days to download. After this time data may be archived or deleted, unless you pay for the yearly storage option.
- The yearly storage option will mean we retain a copy of all data for the specified time. If the fee is not renewed yearly, we may delete your data. We are not liable in any way for data loss or corruption.
- Under our fair usage policy, data can only be retrieved once. Additional retrievals will incur the data transfer cost.
- Data access may not be instant and may be subject to a retrieval period.
