Molecular biology laboratory: a new direction for GML

We are excited to announce a major expansion of our laboratory services. Over the past year, we have been planning, equipping, and preparing a dedicated molecular biology workspace within our facility. This expansion represents the most significant broadening of our capabilities since we added high-resolution mass spectrometry in 2017.

The molecular biology laboratory will support DNA extraction, purification, quantification, amplification, and ultimately sequencing workflows. This capability responds to growing client demand for genetic and genomic analysis in environmental, agricultural, industrial, and research applications.

Equipment acquisition and installation will proceed in phases throughout 2021. We will post updates here as instruments are commissioned and validated. The first services — DNA extraction, quantification, and PCR — are expected to be available by mid-year.
