Ambry Genetics said today that it has launched genomic research services based on Fluidigm's BioMark HD and Access Array systems.

The services will include gene expression, SNP genotyping, and sample preparation for targeted sequencing using next-generation sequencers.

The BioMark HD System provides the sensitivity and throughput needed to study gene expression profiles down to the single-cell level, as well as high-throughput SNP genotyping and digital PCR for copy number variation and rare mutation detection.
