  The SNP Array 5.0 is a single microarray featuring all single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the original two-chip Mapping 500K Array Set, as well as 420,000 additional non-polymorphic probes that can measure other genetic differences, such as copy number variation.
  SNPs on the array are present on 200 to 1,100 base pair (bp) Nsp I or Sty I digested fragments in the human genome, and are amplified using the fifth generation of the Whole-genome Sampling Assay (WGSA).
