A subset of 31 cases that had sufficient material for additional testing was subjected to array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH; 244K platform, Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, California) to verify the positive and negative HER2 results.
Two tools that are gaining diagnostic traction for intellectual disability are array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) and intellectual disability genetic testing panels, aCGH is a technology that interrogates the chromosomes for gains or losses of microscopic regions of all 23 chromosomes and the sex chromosomes, aCGH looks for chromosome abnormalities using a resolution far superior to standard chromosome studies, which are limited by light-microscopy resolution, aCGH technology is rapidly becoming the initial diagnostic test of choice for intellectual disability, and similar aCGH assays are now widely used in cancer diagnostics to look for relevant gains and losses of important oncogenic regions.
The Ambry StemArray uses array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH) technology and operates on a high-resolution full genome array with 15Kb overall medium probe spacing and increased probe coverage in over 60 stem cell-associated genes and more than 200 cancer-related genes.
This innovative assay goes beyond limitations of standard array comparative genomic hybridization methods to yield copy number, allelic ratio, and somatic mutation data from only 75 nanograms of input DNA, the lowest sample requirement available.
These new products are designed to further streamline workflow and minimize sample tracking errors when performing array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH).
"We are delighted to announce the world's first pregnancy using real time polar body array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH) and the baby is due later in the spring," the Telegraph quoted Dr Simon Fishel, from the Care Fertility Group in Nottingham, as saying.
Dr Fishel, a former pupil of King David School, Childwall, said: "We are delighted to announce the world's first pregnancy using real-time polar body array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH) and the baby is due later in the spring.
Coverage includes review of such topics as mutation scanning, cleavage, quality control, databases, and nomenclatures, followed by a section of step-by-step methods, including tag-array minisequencing, electronic hybridization, pyrosequencing, fluorescent single-stranded conformation polymorphism, denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography, array comparative genomic hybridization, and microplate array diagonal gel electrophoresis.
