Preparing Genotyping Arrays
| Title: | Preparing Genotyping Arrays |
|---|---|
| Description: | A technician applies a glass cover with a spacer to the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping array so reagents can be passed over the chip's surface. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) examine many common genetic variants in different individuals to see if any variant is associated with a trait, such as cancer. |
