Goldengate and Infinium genotyping certification for Integragen

Concurrent with the annual European Human Genetics Conference in Nice, France, USA-based Illumina says that French firm IntegraGen SA, a personalized health care company focused on the development and commercialization of molecular diagnostic tests for complex diseases and provider of genetic services, has received Illumina Certified Service Provider (CSPro) certification for GoldenGate and Infinium genotyping technologies.

The GoldenGate assay is Illumina's first array-based platform that combines high-sample throughput, high multiplexing, and single-site CpG resolution for DNA methylation profiling. The Infinium Whole-Genome Genotyping BeadArray solution offers single or multi-sample BeadChip formats and high-density architecture with the flexibility to add additional custom SNP Assays, the US firm says.
