Important to Know
MapIt Optical Mapping Services are available for specific microbial projects on a by-quotation basis. Please complete the request and provide detailed project information in the form, or contact OpGen.
Microbial Safety Level Classification must be BSL-1 or BSL-2 — for microbes otherwise classified, you must provide signed documentation as proof that only non-viable microbes are provided to OpGen. OpGen will provide the protocol for rendering cells non-viable.
DNA sample submission is on a case-by case basis — please let us know of your special needs. Normally, because ultra long length DNA of 200Kb is required for Optical Mapping, your microbial samples will be prepared and processed at OpGen MapIt Services.
For Comparative Genomics, Optical Maps within the same species are compared. Cross-species comparisons are helpful for discovering potential microbial misclassifications but are otherwise not usually performed.
