Summary of service
We provide service in the production of transgenic strains of flies, Drosophila Melanogaster, and nematodes, Caenorhabditis Elegans, and in RNAi-mediated suppression of gene expression in these organisms. The facility can also participate in more demanding genomic projects, such as targeted knock-out of gene activity, after evaluation of the intended project.
The facility is happy to give advice and other help with techniques and constructs.
