BlueGnome’s technology platform comprises multiple innovations around the production, use, and analysis of microarrays for copy number analysis. While the technology ranges widely in nature, from production processes to protocol developments to statistical algorithms, the objective is always to deliver:
- Clear and robust measurements of copy number at the right resolution for your application. BlueGnome is able to offer sensitive BAC arrays produced using proprietary printing technology, high resolution oligo arrays with unique probe design, and tiling path FISH probes to meet your requirements.
- Ease of use in a high volume laboratory. BlueGnome has developed robust protocols to deliver results straightforwardly and rapidly in a normal cytogenetics laboratory (24-48 hours). Application specific consumables kits are provided for optimal performance and convenience.
- Rapid and informed analysis. Advanced software sits at the heart of every BlueGnome solution, combining sample/data management, array analysis, visualization on chromosomal ideograms, and detailed reporting and QC auditing functionality. Unique statistical algorithms lower noise and improve region calling.
BlueGnome’s proprietary technical innovations are devoted to improving the microarray copy number platform as a whole, whether through consumables or software. Complementing these technical innovations, BlueGnome provides informed and responsive customer service, helping laboratories get the most out of their microarray solutions.
