VALIDATION OF COMPARATIVE GENOMIC HYBRIDIZATION

摘要

The present invention generally relates to techniques involving comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) and related techniques, including the validation of assay results. In one aspect, a region of interest of a genome or other target nucleic acid, identified using CGH or similar techniques, may be validated using a probe based on the CGH results. The oligonucleotides, in some embodiments, may bind the genome in some fashion (e.g., to the region of interest, and/or to other predetermined regions), and thus can be used for validation of CGH or other results.
