manufacture_protocol: The microarray contains 44255 in situ synthesized 60-mer probes spaced at 43000 bp intervals throughout the human genome and includes 3877 controls. The probes are, according to the manufacturer’s description, enriched in cancer-relevant genes, representing both coding and non-coding sequences on the chromosomes. Experiments using Agilent arrays were performed using human placenta genomic DNA as reference and following Agilent’s recommended standard protocol. The arrays were scanned using the Agilent scanner, and data were extracted, filtered and normalized using the Feature Extraction program (Agilent Technologies). The Agilent CGH Analytics Software 3.4 trial (Agilent Technologies) was used to export the CGH array data.
