IMGM offers a first-class service for microarray-based array-CGH (comparative genomic hybridization).


Screening for chromosomal aberrations such as amplifications or deletions has more and more become a key element in genetic analysis, whole-genome association studies and clinical diagnostics.

Genomic variations like SNPs and CNVs are well known to influence gene expression. While SNPs represent single nucleotide polymorphisms, CNVs are characterized by copy number variation of longer stretches of DNA. Together, they are responsible for a substantial amount of human phenotypic variability and disease susceptibility.

At IMGM, we use the oligonucleotide array-CGH platform developed by Agilent Technologies. This cutting-edge platform enables us to provide you with high resolution whole-genome screening data for genomic aberrations. Zoom-in custom arrays can be designed for a more detailed analysis of your genomic region of interest.

Alternatively, IMGM also offers array-CGH screening service based on BlueGnome’s CytoChip™. This service is carried out in collaboration with our strategic partner “Center for human genetics and laboratory medicine, Dr. Klein & Dr. Rost” in Martinsried.

To validate your array-CGH-based copy number findings, IMGM offers a complementary real-time PCR-based CNV validation service. For more information on this service, please click here.
