Once EcoArray has my samples, how long will it take before I have the results?
Turn-around time depends on the project and how many additional projects are waiting before yours. However, before beginning each project, EcoArray will provide the customer with an estimated time to completion; and we will give you status reports by email as we complete milestones in the project. For example, this is the optimal amount of time it takes for us to complete a suppression subtractive hybridization library (subtraction): 1-3 days to process and perform quality control on RNA (depending on number of samples); 5 days to run the subtraction, 2 days to ligate into vector and grow clones; 3 weeks in the sequencing lab; 1 week to annotate sequences and get information to customer. Overall, the customer should expect results in 7- 8 weeks.
