The DS-36 Matrix Standard (Dye Set J6) is used to perform the spectral calibration required to analyze 6-FAM, VIC, NED, SID, TAZ, and LIZ dye-labeled DNA fragments on the Applied Biosystems SeqStudio, 3130, 3500, and 3730 series systems. The data collection software for these instruments uses the multi-component matrix to automatically analyze the 6 differently colored fluorescent dye-labeled samples in a single capillary. The DS-36 Matrix Standard (Dye Set J6) contains 6 specific sizes of a unique fluorescent dye label.
