<p class="MsoNormal">The Mauck lab is trying to start using a high-throughput HRM analysis method to genotype psyllid specimens and we're wondering if anyone in the department has the same type of machine used in the study we took our protocol from, a Roche
LightCycler 480 real-time PCR instrument. If so, would you be willing to let us use your machine? <br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I believe the Core Facilities on campus only have BioRad qPCR machines, which would require us to do some complicated conversions of ramp rates, etc. So having access to a LightCycler could significantly reduce the amount of time we'd have
to spend troubleshooting to get this protocol working smoothly (plus, I believe the run-time is much shorter than that of the BioRad instruments!).<br>
