UK Biobank Axiom Array

The UK Axiom Biobank Genotyping Arrays can be used to genotype a large number of genetic variants in a single assay.

The UK Axiom Biobank Genotyping Arrays can be used to genotype a large number of genetic variants in a single assay. The arrays are designed to be used with the Axiom GeneTitan Genotyping System, which is a high-throughput genotyping platform that can process up to 384 samples at a time.

The UK Axiom Biobank Genotyping Arrays are capable of genotyping nearly 1 million genetic variants, SNPs, copy number variants (CNVs), and indels. The arrays are also designed to be compatible with a variety of different sample types, including blood, saliva, and buccal cells.

The UK Axiom Biobank Array can be used to identify genetic variants that are associated with a variety of conditions, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurological disorders.

The arrays can also be used to study the genetic variation of populations. This information can be used to better understand the genetic basis of human diversity and to identify genetic risk factors for disease.

Here are some additional details about the UK Axiom Biobank Genotyping Arrays:

  • The arrays are capable of genotyping more than 800,000 genetic variants, including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), copy number variants (CNVs), and indels.
  • The UK Axiom Biobank Genotyping Arrays are a valuable tool for researchers who are studying the genetic basis of disease.
  • The arrays can be used to identify genetic variants that are associated with a variety of conditions, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurological disorders.
  • The arrays can also be used to study the genetic variation of populations. This information can be used to better understand the genetic basis of human diversity and to identify genetic risk factors for disease.
