The Infinium OmniExpressExome-8 BeadChip delivers exceptional power for genome-wide association studies (GWAS), providing comprehensive genomic content on an affordable array. Optimized tag SNPs from all three HapMap1 phases have been strategically selected to capture the greatest amount of common SNP variation, driving the discovery of novel associations with traits and diseases.
The array includes over 273,000 functional exonic markers, delivering coverage of putative functional exonic variants selected from over 12,000 individual exome and whole genome sequences. For greater flexibility, the Infinium OmniExpressExome-8+ version of the BeadChip can be customized to include up to 30,000 additional markers.
