ScreenTape® D800What is the sensitivity of the DNA platform? ScreenTape can detect less than a nanogram per band. What is the linear dynamic range of ScreenTape? 0.5ng/µL to 30ng/µL DNA (approximately 2 orders of magnitude). Do I have to use ScreenTape loading buffer? Yes – they contain DNA markers for sizing and a specific fluorescent dye – this is also applicable to the ScreenTape DNA Ladder, which should be used with ScreenTape for optimal performance. What is the resolution of the DNA platform? The resolution is similar to a good slab gel. Two bands differing by 15% in size should be easily distinguished. For example, two bands of 100 and 115bp or 300 and 345bp. What is the sizing accuracy of the DNA platform? ScreenTape displays an accuracy of ±5%. How much does the TapeStation load onto DNA ScreenTape? 1µL What is the TapeStation sample processing time for a whole ScreenTape? It takes 18 minutes to run all 16 lanes. However, this is scalable so fewer samples will take less time. |
