We can help perform nucleic acid extraction from buffy coat, FFPE and fresh frozen tissues.

For studies needing the most comprehensive information about important samples, OICR can perform whole genome sequencing with as little as 50 nanograms of input DNA.

For insights into cellular activities, transcriptomes offer a dynamic view. Between whole transcriptomes, RNA exomes/transcriptome capture and targeted transcriptomes, we can match the right kit to your application. We have extensive experience creating transcriptomes from both intact and highly degraded FFPE materials.

Our group has delivered on demanding exome projects from those involving hundreds of samples down to unique cases requiring exomes from only 100ng of DNA. Our in-house expertise can construct exomes from many types of samples, from abundant cell lines all the way to the most degraded archival specimens you can find.

Targeted sequencing is a more economic alternative that we offer for deeper sequencing of clinically-relevant genes.

As opposed to Illumina sequencing, which generates ~150bp reads, Long Read Sequencing produces reads from 1,000 to 1,000,000+ bp. Long Read technology is ideally suited for identifying chromosomal rearrangements, gene fusions, splicing isoforms, and post-transcriptional modifications.

10X Genomics high-throughput scRNA-seq technology provides single cell expression measurements that enable discovery of gene expression dynamics and molecular profiling of individual cell types.

When off-the-shelf solutions won’t fulfill your project needs, a dedicated genomics team can create something new for you. We have helped dozens of researchers develop complex, customized genomics and analysis plans that squeeze more out of any size of project.
