Following the previously won tender of 2006, GATC Biotech Ltd. has again been selected as a preferred supplier of DNA sequencing by the Research Councils UK Shared Services Centre Ltd (RCUK SSC Ltd.) until the end of 2012.

 

The company will provide its single read sequencing services to all RCUK laboratories, including the Medical Research Council (MRC), the Institute of Animal Health (IAH), the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), and the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) to name a few.

 

Our unique NightXpress Service was one of the key arguments for selecting the London based GATC Biotech among a wide range of international companies.  It is a "5-to-9" overnight sequencing service which reduces the delivery time of results to just 16 hours from sample collection.

 

Richard Fowles for the RCUK SSC Ltd. commented: “GATC Biotech have been a preferred supplier for DNA sequencing since 2006. They have proven to be a reliable and innovative partner for many years. With NightXpress they are offering an extremely fast service which will provide our scientists with considerable time savings.”
