Cytosure Interpret Software can seamlessly transfer array comparative genomic hybridisation (aCGH) aberration data directly to Cartagenia's Bench constitutional cytogenetics platform.
This helps cytogeneticists accurately correlate genotypic findings with known clinical phenotypes.
Further details of this new functionality will be presented in two workshops at the European Human Genetics Conference 2010 in Gothenburg, Sweden, on 12-15 June.
On 12 June, OGT will present 'From disease to cytogenetics research - an integrated CNV analysis platform from Oxford Gene Technology' at 12pm in room H1.
Following on from this, at 2pm in room R4, Cartagenia will present 'Routine clinical interpretation of copy number variation'.
With the ability to automatically detect CNV aberrations, Cytosure Interpret Software generates reliable and reproducible results, which can be cross referenced with external aberration databases for accurate data interpretation.
These results can now be transferred to Cartagenia's Bench platform, allowing additional data-management options - including quick and secure data sharing within various research facilities - and support for genotype-phenotype correlation analysis.
