The TaqMan® OpenArray® Genotyping Barcode Panel 32B consists of 32 autosomal SNPs that allow for unique identification of individual samples for biorepository applications. This panel can be used in conjuntion with Panel 32A (available separately) which has 3 Y-markers for gender confirmation and 29 autosomal SNPs. The combined panels provide 3 Y-markers and 61 autosomal SNPs for increased stringency. A total of 95 samples and one no-template control can be run with the combined panels.
Markers were selected based on high minor allele frequency in multiple ethnic populations, representation on high throughput genotyping, and robust genotyping performance. These markers allow unique identification of individuals within sample collections. The panel allows unique identification of individuals throughout experimental processes by providing both sample identity and gender checks in the event of sample mix-ups or labeling mistakes. It also serves as an internal control for genome-wide association studies by containing markers from large microarrays to allow matching of sample genotypes directly from the panel to a GWAS array.
This panel is intended for use with the TaqMan® OpenArray® Real-time PCR System, which can cycle and image 3 plates simultaneously, providing high-throughput results with ease.
Note: equivalent panels for use with the QuantStudio™ 12K Flex instrument are also available.
