Product Details

The Agilent platform offers global coverage of native DNA with CGH-specific probes to identify regions of interest. Agilent’s SurePrint inkjet technology ensures high-precision feature placement through base-by-base synthesis and a robust QC process, resulting in superior quality microarrays. Agilent's catalog of CGH formats features predesigned, high-resolution microarrays that enable genome-wide survey and chromosomal profiling. Oligo aCGH probes are selected based on proprietary CGH-optimized algorithms, delivering increased data quality and reproducible aberration detection.
Oligo aCGH technology has enabled scientists to study chromosomal variation with greater accuracy, coverage, and sensitivity than ever before offering a sensitive and flexible alternative to traditional cytogenetic techniques. Oligonucleotide microarrays can enable you to detect large or focal amplifications and deletions, elucidate copy number boundaries within the genome, and characterize chromosomal variations, offering new perspectives on genetically-linked diseases and mechanisms of tumorigenesis. The use of mouse as a model system has enabled scientists to examine human diseases such as those related to cardiology, cancer, diabetes, behavioral disorders, and toxicology, without requiring human subjects during initial stages of drug and therapy development. These organisms have provided valuable information for elucidating disease pathology and mechanisms of regulatory control.

Figure 1. Typical probe coverage characteristics on Agilent 244A and 105A CGH microarrays as illustrated using UCSC hg18 Human Genome Browser, Feb 2006 (NCBI build 36) of chromosome 17.
At the top of each view, each short vertical bar represents a single probe on Agilent Human Genome CGH microarray 244A (blue) or 105A (red). Annotations below the probes indicate the location mapping of UCSC known genes (blue or black) and Sanger microRNAs (red).

Genomic variations include both gains and losses of chromosomal regions that often vary extensively in their sizes. The enhanced detection resolution enabled through the high-density microarrays delivers the highest precision in mapping chromosome breakpoints and identification of micro-variations that are not detected by other platforms.
