Help:Distribution Kits
iGEM HQ and the iGEM Registry no longer prepares and ships part and component requests to teams and labs. Information related to part and component requests on the Registry and other iGEM pages is either deprecated or kept for archival purposes.
We encourage our iGEM teams to use our sponsor synthesis offers to synthesize the samples you need, or to find them through the iGEM distribution kits, if available.
Every year, iGEM releases a distribution kit containing dried DNA parts to iGEM teams and labs. The following is a list of our currently supported and previous distribution kits.
If distribution kit plates are stored properly, the dried down plasmid DNA they contain is quite stable for years.
