Services
Consultation on vector design
Two production scales
- Small scale (½ prep): 500ul
- Large scale (full prep): 1ml
Expected yield*
- AAV: 1ml of ≥ 1x1013 vg/ml
- Lentivirus: 1ml of ≈108 TU/ml
*Some transgenes can be cytotoxic, and occasionally different capsids can produce less efficiently. This can result in lower titer.
Cost
AAV
- Small scale: £1,600
- Large scale: £2,000
Lentivirus
- Small scale: £600
- Large scale: £1,000
Users can decide to pay 10% extra charge as insurance for failed preps. This will allow users to run an extra production process without additional costs.
QC provided
- Vector genome concentration (qPCR)
- Vector purity (SDS gel)
- Endotoxin levels (LAL test)
