Signature Genomic Laboratories makes Genoglyphix microarray
visualization program available to full-service clients
November 2008
The Genoglyphix microarray visualization program was previously
available only to laboratories that analyze microarray results using
Signature research-use-only microarrays in-house. The HIPAA-compliant
Genoglyphix service allows users to visualize microarray test results
for their patients over a secure online server.
For each patient, the Genoglyphix Genome Browser shows the syndromes
and genes in the affected region, and links to the RefSeq, Online
Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), and PubMed databases provide access
to the latest research available online. Through the browser, users can
also access the Database of Genomic Variants to identify common copy
number variants.
“One of our primary objectives is to provide medical professionals
with the greatest amount of useful information for the medical
management of their patients,” said Bassem Bejjani, MD, Chief Medical
Officer at Signature. “Microarrays give us an unprecedented amount of
information; the Genoglyphix service allows our clients to access and
analyze that information in a user-friendly setting.”
