Who does our DNA analysis? Who's Baseclear?

BASECLEAR X NOMIGE

Our DNA analyses are done in a genetic laboratory in the Netherlands, called 'Baseclear'.
Who or what is Baseclear and what do they do for Nomige?

We were fortunate enough to ask some questions to the CEO & Founder of Baseclear, Bas Reichert and the Senior Sales & Account Manager, Evelien Zeinstra.

WHO IS BASECLEAR?

Baseclear is a DNA service laboratory. Nowadays it is called genomics, the broad field of DNA research. They do DNA research on behalf of third parties. Their customers are mostly industrial companies: both small and large companies that choose Baseclear because of the quality of their DNA research.

 

WHAT HAPPENS WITH THE DNA SAMPLES?

Nomige sends the samples to Baseclear by traceable post. When the samples arrive at Baseclear, they are inspected and checked, after which they go to the laboratory. This is where the samples are further processed (e.g. DNA extraction and purification) and DNA research is started. After examination, the results are sent via a secure portal and connection to Nomige.

WHAT IS THE INFLUENCE OF EATING OR DRINKING ON THE ANALYSIS OF A DNA SAMPLE?

The influence of eating and drinking when taking a swab is certainly relevant. Because if there is food in the swab, it can inhibit DNA analysis. Make sure that both the swab and your mouth are as clean as possible (you don't have to be sober!) so that the DNA analysis can be successful.


HOW IMPORTANT IS GDPR FOR BASECLEAR?

Data security, GDPR or AVG regulation is an extremely important part. After all, it is about someone's DNA.

Everything is therefore anonymised and the data is sent to customers in a secure, encrypted manner. Baseclear was one of the first laboratories to achieve the ISO 27.001 standard because they are working on data safety at a very high level. For Nomige, too, it is extremely important that we can guarantee this safety to our customers.

 

WHAT'S SO NICE ABOUT WORKING WITH NOMIGE?

"It's so much fun to work with Nomige. A young entrepreneur who is passionate about her company. That reminds me of myself when I started this company 25 years ago as a young entrepreneur and in the meantime I have grown into what it is today. And I wish her that with all my heart. We try to support Nomige because I have a heart for that kind of young entrepreneurs", says CEO Bas Reichert.

"And what makes Nomige different", adds Senior Account Manager Evelien Zeinstra, "is that we have set up something unique for Nomige after all". "Barbara came up with a proposal for tests that actually weren't there yet. We then worked out the genetic assay together. And of course it is also very nice to see how a small startup will develop and grow".
All this makes Nomige special, fun and unique.

Thank you!

Thank you Bas Reichert and Evelien Zeinstra for this nice interview!
