Array CGH
Traditional karyotyping methods, such as FISH or G-banding, are
well established for detecting chromosomal aberrations, but they do
not provide the speed, throughput or resolution required by today's
cytogenetic laboratories.
With our aCGH arrays and associated software you can generate
molecular profiles with a single experiment, and circumvent the
considerable limitations of using metaphase spreads.
Our technology takes karyotyping to a new level of performance and
ease-of-use. PerkinElmer microarrays are validated and quality
controlled BAC arrays with high sensitivity and low background.
Constitutional Chip® 3.0 allows you to focus your work on
phenotypically relevant genomic gains and losses. Constitutional
Chip® 4.0 focuses on well characterized chromosomal regions but
also provides a back-bone coverage for detection of de novo events
throughout the whole genome. Our products provide data on amplified
and deleted regions reproducibly on a genome-wide scale.
PerkinElmer supplies a complete molecular karyotyping solution:
microarrays, aCGH reagents, ScanRI™ microarray scanner with
image processing software and aCGH data analysis software. Our aCGH
data analysis solutions range from simple, easy-to-use software
(SpectrwalWare®) to advanced, state-of-the art solutions (One
Click and Fusion, PerkinElmer Editions). BAC DNA is available for
verification of the results.
