dc.description.abstract | The genotyping lab has been spending
an excessive amount of the budget on E-Z 96 DNA
plate (plastic plates for storing samples). The plates
contain the samples trough the sample collecting
process in the field and the DNA extraction
process. Through both process the sample plates
are expose to high stress. Even though the stress
which they are expose; most of the plates are being
dispose in new like conditions. The plates, after a
visual inspection show that have the potential of
being reuse in the process. The possibility of
reusing theses consumables in the laboratory could
decrease the expresses approximately 80%. An
experiment was executed which statistics results
determine than enabling the reuse of the sample
plates has no negative impact in the data produce
by the genotyping laboratory and will generate
savings in expenses cutting the purchase of 40,000
plates to an amount of 7,000.
