The Stanford University Genome Technology Center plans to advance multiple research projects through the use of the BioTrove’s (www.biotrove.com) OpenArray™ technology platform. Researchers in the Stanford Genome Technology lab, led by Ronald Davis, Ph.D., director, anticipate applications in single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based tests, and the development of novel uses for the OpenArray system.
“By increasing the number of reactions analyzed at one time by as much as ten-fold, and with the flexibility to use its technology in multiple applications, the OpenArray platform enables faster, more cost-effective analysis of biologic samples,” says Dr. Davis.
