description: The NimbleGen platform consists of 20 NimbleGen HD2 chips, each containing 2.1M probes, and each chip is further subdivided into 3 equal-sized subarrays containing about 726K probes. The probes were designed according to NimbleGen's standard protocol, targeting the NCBI Build 36 genome, with the exception that no homology filter was applied, allowing coverage of segmentally duplicated regions. The design provides 1 probe per 50bp average density across the genome.
  
  Genomic annotation is based on NCBI human build 36.
