    Each oligo sequence is physically tested using one or more of the following techniques: MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, Electrospray lonization mass spectrometry, and Capillary Electrophoresis. Final yields are determined using UV absorbance at OD260. A Quality Assurance Certificate will be provided for every order indicating the yield, melting temperature, MW and µg/OD of each oligo sequence. Sigma-Genosys is ready to provide mass spec traces for all sequences that are desalted, non-modified, and <50 nucleotide bases upon request. The Tissue Culture Core Facility adds a 15% surcharge to all completed orders. Phone: (409) 772-4903
