Our microarray technology

We use state-of-the-art Illumina array technologies, including whole-genome genotyping and methylation arrays. Custom arrays provide flexible solutions to meet a range of study requirements. Proven array scanning systems image each array, helping scientists unravel the complex genetic architecture behind diseases. Additionally, in-house software SNP selection and analysis tools are used to optimize data precision and research scalability.

Microarray service process

Our reliable automated process guarantees high-quality data delivered in a timely fashion. Our project managers work closely with the project lead throughout the process. Each sample is handled with care from arrival at Illumina to data generation, using a LIMS tracking system for all samples and data.

Multiple QC steps give customers confidence in their data. Each microarray service project is treated with the same level of care for optimal delivery of high-quality data with a fast turnaround time.

Breadth of experience

We offer years of experience providing services with proven Illumina array technology. Past projects have included genetic disease and cancer applications such as pancreatic, lung and prostate cancer studies, as well as population-based studies in schizophrenia, HIV, and diabetes. Projects have expanded from the research community to biobanks, agriculture, and personal genomics, with offerings for a wide range of sample types.

Additionally, we provide you with personalized attention as your project progresses. Our methylation array and genotyping services can help cost-effectively and rapidly identify variants and epigenetic alterations that contribute to diseases and phenotypes.
