Copy number variations (CNVs) are amplifications or deletions of longer stretches of DNA. Together with SNPs, they are responsible for a substantial amount of human phenotypic variability and disease susceptibility.

IMGM offers a state-of-the-art real-time PCR service for CNV analysis. This service relies on a vast collection of TaqMan® Copy Number Assays (Applied Biosystems).

TaqMan®  Copy Number Assays are an ideal tool to validate array-CGH-based findings such as amplifications or deletions of chromosomal regions. For more information on our array-CGH service, please click here.
