SNP Genotyping
A Single Nucleotide Polymorphism is a single substitution of one nucleotide for another at a specific site on the genome. It is estimated that SNPs may occur as frequently as once every 100 to 300 bases in the human genome. [1]
Salimetrics SNP Genotyping Technology
Salimetrics uses TaqMan® SNP Genotyping assays from Applied Biosystems (AB). The TaqMan platform is highly flexible, which allows us to return assay results quickly. Sequencing is performed using an Applied Biosystems 7500 Real-Time PCR System.
Our expert team helps you choose the right markers for your project from the AB SNP library of fully validated assays, or we can design custom assays to meet your needs.
