- Cautions about Human Clinical Samples
* Samples containing Covid-19 or influenza viruses are not to be accepted.
As we currently produce oligos to be used in PCR test kits for [SARS-CoV-2] and [Influenza A/B virus], we do not accept nucleic acid samples which may become a template for such oligos. Thank you for your understanding.
Service Description
Nucleic acid is to be extracted from tissue, cell and blood, then purified.
Extracted and purified samples are subject to QC using tape station or bioanalyzer.
Nucleic Acid Extraction
– DNA extraction: genomic DNA
– RNA extraction: Total RNA
Samples
– Tissue, cell and blood
Required Amount of Sample
<DNA Extraction>
Sample Type | Approx. Required Amount | How to prepare | Container for transport |
Tissue | square 3 mm on a side (approx. 30mg) | Freeze a tissue fragment instantly by using liquid nitrogen and store it at -80 degree C | 1.5 or 2mL tube |
Cell | approx. 106 cells | Freeze a cell pellet instantly by using liquid nitrogen and store it at -80 degree C | |
Blood | 500uL or more | Collect blood using blood collection tube with anticoagulant agent, split the required amount and freeze it at -80 degree C |
<RNA Extraction>
Sample Type | Approx. Required Amount | How to prepare | Container for transport |
Tissue | square 3~5 mm on a side (approx. 30~100mg) | After RNAlater treatment*1 or freezing with liquid nitrogen instantly, store the tissue fragment at -80 degree C | 1.5 or 2mL tube |
Cell | approx. 106 cells | Freeze a cell pellet using liquid nitrogen instantly and store it at -80 degree C | |
Blood | 2.5mL | Collect blood in PAXgene® Blood RNA Tube (2.5mL)*2, leave it at room temperature for at least 2 hours, and freeze it at -20 degree C for at least 24 hours | PAXgene®Bolld RNA Tube |
Reagents do not penetrate quickly into a tissue fragment thicker than 0.5cm which will cause RNA not stable in the center of tissue.
If tissue is sliced too thick, RNA may become degraded. RNAlater treatment is not available for a frozen tissue.

Cautions about Human Clinical Samples
For Human clinical samples order, please make sure to read through the below descriptions.
< Sample Acceptability >
– We basically do not accept samples infected with pathogenetic microorganism or virus. Please refer to the below for details.
[ Unacceptable Samples ]
- Samples infected with pathogenetic microorganisms of the bio safety level (BSL) 3 or higher according to National Institute of Infectious Diseases, or with infection possibility based on clinical test and observation
- Samples infected with HCV or HBV viruses
- Samples infected with other pathogenetic microorganism (BSL 2 or lower, BSL not determined) or viruses
< Sample Information Required >
– It is required to provide sample information in advance so that HSS confirms if the sample is acceptable.For details, please inquire.
< Sample Shipping >
– Please ship out only the samples which are confirmed as acceptable by HSS.
– Please ship your sample using our Human sample shipping kit.
This kit will be sent from HSS upon confirmation of sample acceptability based on the information provided by a client.
Shipping kit and the way of packing differ depend on extracted nucleic acid and the sample type.
For details, please inquire.
