Comprehensive Genomic Analysis – Complementing Sequencing with High-Resolution CNV Detection
26 Feb 2014This white paper discusses the role of these molecular arrays as part of their complete investigation framework, and how such an integrated approach presents the next stage of molecular testing in clinical genetics research. To provide real-world examples, this approach is also be discussed in the context of two case studies.

Genome AnalysisGenomics, the study of genomes, includes functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and comparative genomics. There are many genomic technologies such as DNA sequencing of whole genomes, computational biology and bioinformatics. DNA and nucleic acids must be isolated and concentrated from cells for analysis with kits, automated analyzers and software. Other useful technologies for studying genomics include PCR, microarrays and electrophoresis.Clinical GeneticsMolecular Genetics covers the analysis of hereditary genetic disease and chromosomal abnormalities. Genetics can be analysed using DNA, RNA, and protein microarrays, PCR, RT PCR and DNA sequencing. Genetic equipment includes genetic workstations, thermal cyclers, cooling blocks and electrophoresis products. Diagnostic kits are used for DNA / RNA extraction and purification.
