GeneChip^® Human Mitochondrial
Resequencing Array 2.0

Analysis of mitochondrial mutations is informative for a variety of applications from disease genetics to forensic identification. The GeneChip® Human Mitochondrial Resequencing Array 2.0 provides the most efficient and cost-effective method for detecting germ line and heteroplasmic mutations by delivering the complete mitochondrial genome with minimal PCR in only 48 hours.

Features and Benefits

More Information Per Experiment
The Human Mitochondrial Resequencing Array 2.0 interrogates the entire 16 kb genome on a single array.
Less PCR
The robust Mitochondrial Resequencing Assay amplifies the entire genome in only three PCR reactions.
No Assembly Required
The Mitochondrial Resequencing Array 2.0 delivers completed sequence in 48 hours with minimal alignment.
