The importance of copy numbers in genetic diagnostics and research
Copy number variants play a role in many genetic disorders. The fast, accurate and affordable detection of CNVs is essential for clinical genetic testing and research.
MRC Holland develops tools for the detection of DNA copy numbers and methylation patterns associated with disease. Our MLPA® technique is the gold standard in this field, and is used around the world to study hereditary disorders and tumours.
