The CCG lab is outfitted for standard DNA sequencing and genotyping applications. The lab is made up of four separate rooms: a DNA extraction lab, a PCR set-up lab, a gel electrophoresis lab, and a post PCR/sequencing lab. The DNA extraction lab is USDA approved as a Biohazard Safety Level 2 facility which allows for extraction of DNA from bird and mammal tissue samples collected overseas. We currently have 8 thermal cyclers and one ABI3130 DNA sequencer available for use in the lab. The CCG lab is also equipped for cloning. |
