|---|---|---|---|
| Description | 8-sample arrays with high throughput and optimized tag SNP content, including full support of copy number variation applications, designed to be highly customizable and maximally informative for studying diverse world populations. | The 8-sample Infinium Diversity Array provides targeted coverage of more than 4800 key genes across the genome. Approximately 1.8M markers are included on the BeadChip for high exonic coverage in regions of disease relevance, providing highly accurate copy number variation calls, and an average resolution of 1.5Mb. | A high-density array that provides exceptional coverage of common, intermediate, and rare SNPs while leveraging powerful tag SNPs and offering optimized content for whole-genome genotyping and copy number variation studies. |
| Number of Markers | Fixed markers: ~2,381,000, Custom marker add-on capacity: None | Fixed markers: 4,284,426, Custom marker add-on capacity: None | |
| Number of Samples | 8 samples per array | 4 samples per array | |
| Sample Throughput | ~1728 samples/week per iScan (max throughput and scan time may vary based on lab and system configurations) | >460 samples per week (estimate for 2 iScan Systems, 1 AutoLoader 2.x, 3 Infinium Automated Pipetting Systems, and a 5-day work week) | |
