MISSION shRNA

Can I order MISSION shRNA clones over the phone?
Currently the best way to order is over the web. If you have a special situation or need assistance with your order please email us at RNAi@sial.com.


Why don't the MISSION shRNA have product numbers?
MISSION shRNA target sets are made on demand and do not have Sigma product numbers like our other products. The clone library currently consists of 89,897 different constructs. The online order process ensures that the information for each requested target set gets fed into our production system correctly.


How long will my order take to process?

Each target set or individual clone is produced on demand in our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. The following times are required to produce each format after the order appears in our LIMS manufacturing database:
SHGLY – Bacterial Stock 48 hours
SHDNA – Purified DNA 2 weeks
SHVRS – Lentiviral Transduction Particles 4 weeks

Orders ship Monday -- Thursday. Glycerol format orders received after 3 pm on Wednesday may not ship until the following Monday. Some orders may require additional time to process. Please allow up to 2 weeks additional shipping time for international orders.
