It offers substantially better resolution to detect smaller regions than FISH or CGH.
Many types and sizes of structural variation in the human genome that affect phenotypes can be detected with the HumanCytoSNP-12 BeadChip, including duplications, deletions, amplifications, copy-neutral LOH, and mosaicism.
This BeadChip includes a complete panel of genome-wide tag SNPs and markers targeting all regions of known cytogenetic importance. It incorporates 200,000 “best of the best” SNPs with the highest tagging power.
Downstream data analysis is fully supported with Illumina's KaryoStudio and GenomeStudio software.
