What is the turnaround time for gene synthesis?
Delivery times for gene synthesis projects depend on the length, complexity and cloning vector requested for your project. For genes of average length and complexity, delivery times run between two and four weeks, although genes are sometimes delivered in as little as seven days! Blue Heron also offers a Rush Delivery Service that may be a better choice when time is critical – call for details. With any biological process, of course, uncontrolled circumstances may occur. The delivery times Blue Heron quotes are “safe” delivery estimates given our experience delivering tens of millions of base pairs of DNA. Be careful comparing quotes from vendors who are willing to state overly-aggressive delivery times to win your business. Because Blue Heron wants to be your gene synthesis partner, we will give you the most accurate estimates possible and will let you know immediately if anything changes during the production process. You should expect no less from your partner. Please contact a Blue
