The two-sample Human1M-Duo DNA Analysis BeadChip, powered by Illumina's Infinium HD Assay, interrogates nearly 1.2 million loci per sample, providing the industry’s most comprehensive genome-wide coverage of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Human1M-Duo BeadChip content is focused on tag SNPs, SNPs in genes, and SNPs and non-polymorphic markers in known and novel copy number variation (CNV) regions.
The BeadChip format enables simultaneous processing of two samples at a time, increasing sample throughput and decreasing experimental variability. The uniform genome-wide coverage results in a median spacing of 1.5 kb between markers and fewer large gaps for high-resolution CNV identification and cytogenetics.
In addition to the broad coverage crucial for successful genome-wide association studies, the Human1M-Duo BeadChip targets other high-value content:
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) map genetic variation across human populations to identify variants associated with human disease. Infinium HD BeadChips offer GWAS researchers the flexibility to profile samples with 300,000 to 1.2 million markers in high-throughput format, and deliver dense genome-wide coverage with the most up-to-date content available from the scientific community. Strategically selected probes provide sensitive copy number variation analysis and target high-value regions of the genome associated with disease.
More...Structural variability is a substantial source of genetic variation that has a major influence on phenotypic variation. Cytogenetic analysis allows researchers to profile chromosomal aberrations such as amplifications, deletions, rearrangements, point mutations, copy number changes, and copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity (LOH) events.
