Genetic Identity Reference Information

Expiration Dating

We assign expiration dates for many of our Genetic Identity Systems, including all PowerPlex® and GenePrint® Systems. The expiration date is three years from the manufacture date of the bulk primer pair.

In-house testing shows primer pairs to be stable for periods of at least three years. Therefore, we place expiration dates on the kit label as well as the 10X primer pair label. These STR systems are guaranteed for three years from the manufacture of the bulk primer pair.
