Applied Biosystems Plans to Launch Human Linkage Mapping Set in 05

Oct 25, 2004

NEW YORK, Oct. 25 (GenomeWeb News) - Applied Biosystems next year will launch a new 4-K human linkage mapping set for its SNPlex genotyping system, which will run on both its 3130 series genetic analyzers and 3730 DNA analyzers.

 

According to the company, the new linkage mapping set is a high-density, SNP-based solution for family-based linkage analysis.
