Economy Run

Best-in-Class Sanger sequencing service in 1.5 ml tubes for routine but also most difficult-to-sequence PCR products and plasmids. The Economy Run is available in a prepaid as well as in a non-prepaid version. The prepaid service is very popular due to its excellent price-performance ratio.

Environmentally-Friendly Sample Pick-Up
-
Your sequencing samples are predominantly shipped using environmentally-friendly transport vehicles (train, bicycle)
Cost-Effective
- Failed reactions are repeated free of charge
- Standard vector primers (>90) but also specific primers are added free of charge
- Optimized sequencing methods for GC-rich templates or hairpin structures free of charge
User-Friendly Online Ordering System
- Easy-to-use online shop with lots of useful tools
- Primer management tool to define your customized primer list
- Group management tool to share barcode labels and primers among group members
Technical Support
- Direct access to support by experienced academic staff (no phone hotline).
- Available at no charge to discuss your project, troubleshoot, and answer questions
- Useful information for initial troubleshooting is provided automatically with sequencing results that are difficult to sequence
Additional Services
Following useful and complementary services can be purchased at a small extra charge1 to further upgrade Microsynth's Economy Run:
- PCR purification
- Advanced sequencing protocol for difficult-to-sequence samples2
- Overnight in-house production of specific sequencing primers
1 Complementary services can be chosen while placing a sequencing order in our online shop. You will receive an invoice covering the costs that are not included in the price for the prepaid barcode labels.
2 We recommended choosing this option only in case you have difficult-to-sequence samples that would not be successfully sequenced with our cost-free sequencing protocols (default standard protocol and GC-rich Treatment).
