NimbleGen Comparative Genome Sequencing (CGS) 385K Array
from
Roche Applied Science
Description
The NimbleGen Comparative Genome Sequencing (CGS-seq) 385K microarray rapidly surveys entire microbial genomes, identifying the locations of SNPs, insertions, or deletions and then fully characterizing identified SNPs by array sequencing with unrivaled speed and accuracy. NimbleGen's CGS technology accelerates microbe characterization and provides an efficient, high-throughput, cost-effective method for rapid, genome-wide analysis. With the current capacity of 385,000 custom probes, the initial survey of a microbial genome can span up to 1,300,000bp of genomic sequence in a single array. For larger genomes, the design can be split over as many arrays as required for complete genomic coverage.
