| Overview | ||||
| SciGene works closely with Signature Genomic Laboratories (Spokane, WA), the leader in aCGH based molecular cytogenetics testing, in the application of SciGene technology to the automation of clinical genetic tests that use SignatureSelect Arrays. SciGene’s suite of instruments are used daily in Signature Genomic’s clinical laboratory, processing over 1000 patient samples per month. SciGene products are recommended by Signature Genomic Laboratories to clinical laboratories who perform tests using SignatureSelect Arrays. | ![]() |

TechnologySciGene provides a family of instruments that work together to automate the workflow used with SignatureSelect aCGH assays from sample isolation and labeling through array hybridization and post-hybridization processing. The ArrayPrep™ Target Preparation System is a reagent handling and incubation platform specially designed for amplifying/labeling and then loading DNA onto microarrays. The Mai Tai® Hybridization System accommodates robotic sample loading and applies bubble mixing technology during incubation of multiple slides for all SignatureSelect array formats. The Little Dipper® Processor with NoZone® Workspace automates protocols for washing and drying of arrays in an ozone-safe environment presenting slides ready for scanning. |
