description: The Whole-Genome DASL® Assay enables sensitive, reproducible, cost-effective gene expression profiling of low-abundance and partially degraded RNA, such as that found in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples. Over 24,000 targets can be analyzed at once. The Whole-Genome DASL Assay combines the proven DASL (cDNA-mediated Annealing, Selection, and Ligation) Assay and the HumanRef-8 Expression BeadChip currently used in Illumina’s Direct Hybridization Expression Assays to create an accurate, easy-to-use, higher multiplex assay. Each BeadChip contains eight arrays for simultaneous processing of eight samples. Chosen targets provide genome-wide transcriptional coverage of well-characterized National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Reference Sequence (RefSeq Build 36.2, Release 22) genes.
  
  Please use the GEO Data Submission Report Plug-in v1.0 for Gene Expression which may be downloaded from https://icom.illumina.com/icom/software.ilmn?id=234 to format the normalized and raw data.  These should be submitted as part of a GEOarchive.  Instructions for assembling a GEOarchive may be found at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/geo/info/spreadsheet.html
