TaqMan OpenArray Genotyping

The TaqMan® OpenArray® Genotyping system is a high-throughput, low-cost genotyping system using two gold-standard technologies: TaqMan® Genotyping Assays and OpenArray® technology.

• TaqMan® Genotyping uses two allele-specific MGB probes and associated amplification primers providing reliable highly accurate genotypes.

• OpenArray technology uses special microscope slide-sized plates filled with 3072 through-holes, each acting as a 33nL reactor.

Plates are available in several formats, from 144 samples against 16 unique TaqMan® Genotyping Assays to 12 samples against 256 unique TaqMan Genotyping Assays.

The Applied Biosystems TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assay collection includes over 4.5 million genotyping assays. Of these, there are 3.5 million HapMap SNPs and 2600 drug metabolizing enzyme (DME) genotyping assays. Additionally, researchers can create Custom TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays for any genome by submitting their target SNP sequences.
