Optical Whole-Genome Restriction Mapping as a Tool for Rapidly Distinguishing and Identifying Bacterial Contaminants in Clinical Samples.

Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR

Chapleau RR, Baldwin JC.
PMID: 26435946
J Clin Diagn Res. 2015 Aug;9(8):DC24-7. doi: 10.7860/JCDR/2015/13983.6408. Epub 2015 Aug 01.

INTRODUCTION: Optical restriction genome mapping is a technology in which a genome is linearized on a surface and digested with specific restriction enzymes, giving an arrangement of the genome with gaps whose order and size are unique for a...

Speech delays and behavioral problems are the predominant features in individuals with developmental delays and 16p11.2 microdeletions and microduplications.

Journal of neurodevelopmental disorders

Rosenfeld JA, Coppinger J, Bejjani BA, Girirajan S, Eichler EE, Shaffer LG, Ballif BC.
PMID: 21731881
J Neurodev Disord. 2010 Mar;2(1):26-38. doi: 10.1007/s11689-009-9037-4.

Microdeletions and microduplications encompassing a ~593-kb region of 16p11.2 have been implicated as one of the most common genetic causes of susceptibility to autism/autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We report 45 microdeletions and 32 microduplications of 16p11.2, representing 0.78% of...

Comparative analysis of copy number detection by whole-genome BAC and oligonucleotide array CGH.

Molecular cytogenetics

PMID: 20587050
Mol Cytogenet. 2010 Jun 29;3:11. doi: 10.1186/1755-8166-3-11.

BACKGROUND: Microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) is a powerful diagnostic tool for the detection of DNA copy number gains and losses associated with chromosome abnormalities, many of which are below the resolution of conventional chromosome analysis. It has been...

Graded-index AR surfaces produced by ion implantation on plastic materials.

Applied optics
