Survey to Assess Need for In-House Validation Services
NIH is now requiring grant applicants to validate key reagents to be used in the proposed research, particularly cell lines. Major journals are also starting to require such validation for publication. The preferred validation method is STR (short tandem repeat) profiling. Commercial firms provide this service for fees ranging from $70 to $300, depending on the firm and the precise work being done.
