Bio S&T is the exclusive worldwide provider of pESAC13 PAC libraries. This unique vector (licensed exclusively to Bio S&T by NAICONS) is used to create Streptomyces sp. and Actinomycete sp. libraries. These libraries can then be screened for clones that will be positive for the desired gene clusters of biosynthetic pathways.

Highlights
- HMW DNA isolation is included.
- pESAC-13 vector (BamHI) vector and DH10B cells will be used for construction.
- We guarantee a minimum 20X BAC library which provides a >99.99% probability of finding the target sequence. Amount of clones received is based on a guaranteed coverage and 120Kb average insert size.
- Clones will be arrayed and amplified in 5 x 384-well plates (1 unique clone/well).
- QC by HMW DNA enzymatic digestion are included. Quality control (average insert size and percentage of empty clones) will be evaluated using randomly selected clones.
- Customized screening for positive clones can be done at Bio S&T.
