Sequenom

Keck Microarray Facility is equipped with the state of the art Sequenom MassArray (compact) system.

  The Sequenom system consists of a liquid handler, and a MALDI-TOF(matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight) mass spectrometer compact analyzer.

   

We currently offering services for moderate to high-throughput (primarily fine-mapping) SNP Genotyping(iPLEX), Quantitative Gene Expression(QGE) and DNA Methylation(EpiTYPER) analysis. Service charges varied from project to project according to the custom designing assays and number of samples.
