Dear Facility Users,

This is an announcement of the PCR-basedMycoplasma Detection in the cell lines in April/2013.

In order to minimize the cost, please prepare your samples as following way,

1. collect a 1mL sample off of the cells to be tested (do not change medium as it may be needed for retesting the next day)
2. spin samples at 1500 rpm for 5 minutes and transfer supernatants to new microfuge tubes
3. label tubes with your name and the name of the cell line
4. bring samples to the Genotyping Core Facility or simply leave them in the freezer with a label of your name and laboratory.

If you are interested in the service, please feel free to contact us.
