description: To develop broadly useful tools in porcine functional genomics, Qiagen-Operon and the USDA-NRSP-8 Swine Genome community collaborated to develop a novel 13K oligonucleotide set (porcine AROS 1.0/1.0 Extension; www.qiagen.com) . The Qiagen oligonucleotide set represents porcine cDNAs and EST, designed from TIGR Tentative Consensus cDNA sequences. These 70-mer oligonucleotides were designed to minimize cross-hybridization and to be as specific to the gene of interest as possible.
