Empire Genomics

• Over 21,000 RPCI-11 BAC (Bacterial Artificial Chromosome) clones in duplicate
• Provides near-tiling resolution through the entire genome
• Identifies over 200 specific congenital syndromes
• Over 3,000 BACs associated with cancer, telomeres and common breakpoints
• Results available within 24 hours
• Utilizes standard hybridization procedures, scanners and analysis
• Greater signal than oligonucleotide array

This human BAC array is great for quick determination of amplifications, deletions and abnormalities in the genome. The high resolution allows for copy number determinations observed most frequently in cancer as well as syndromes associated with aneuploidy (Down Syndrome, Turners syndrome, Trisomy 13, Trisomy 18, etc.)

Optimal Quality Control: All DNA and labeled probes are measured for quantity and quality on a NanoDrop UV spectrometer prior to processing.

Quick Turnaround: You can expect your results in as little as 5 days, depending on the sample quantity, sample type and lead time.

Secure Information: To ensure optimal protection of your results, each customer receives a unique username and password from which they can access their files.

Comprehensive Results: Customers receive a CGH plot that opens as an excel file. This can be visualized as a whole genome or chromosome-by-chromosome. The file also includes the processed image data for each feature and the mapping information. In addition a .view file is provided to allow interactive visualization of the CGH data in CGHViewer.
