description: NimbleGen design name: 091124_micro_BZ_EXP_HX12,
  NimbleGen design ID: 10987
  
  An detection design for 2916 antibiotic resistance genes from ARDB with twelve 60-mer probe pairs (PM/MM) per gene.  Each probe is replicated 3 times.  The design includes random GC control probes.
  
  The .ndf and .ngd files are linked below as supplementary files. However, please note that not all genes in the ngd file are represented in the platform data table. The Platform data table reflects a condensed representation of the array's replicate (SEQ_ID) features.
  
  The 'rep*' appended to each identifer reflects the 'BLOCK' designation in the 'CONTAINER' column of the ndf file.  For example, *rep1 represents the probes with the 'BLOCK1' designation in the 'CONTAINER' column of the ndf file.
