Information
This kit contains six vials of Lambda DNA for performing a Lambda Control Experiment.
Lambda DNA is 48 kb long and serves as a good model system to evaluate the nanopore sequencing workflow.Control experiments should be carried out when users are getting started with an Oxford Nanopore device, or when troubleshooting library preparation.
The Control Expansion Kit features:
| Feature | Property |
|---|
| Pack size | 24 reactions |
| Storage | −20°C to −30°C |
| Stability | Upon receipt, immediately store kits between −20°C and −30°C until you are ready to use them.
Oxford Nanopore Technologies deems the useful life of the product to be 3 months from receipt by the customer. |
Shipping and logistics:
Expansion kits are sensitive to temperature. To maintain their temperature and ensure optimal results during use, consumables are shipped with cool packs. It is not unusual for the cool packs to be warm when you receive them. For optimal results, you should immediately store your new kits at their correct temperatures.
We recommend that expansion kits should be stored between −20°C and −30°C until you are ready to use them.
The delivery charges are calculated when a quote is raised or during checkout. Once an order is made, the delivery ID and delivery information can be tracked in the Store.
What's in the box
The Control Expansion contains Lambda DNA (LMD), sufficient for at least 24 reactions.
