Optical Mapping is the first technology that bridges strain typing & sequencing to correlate phenotype to genotype
The system utilizes Optical Mapping Technology to generate ordered, whole genome genetic maps from single DNA molecules.
Unlike current methods, Optical Mapping is not a gel, PCR or sequencing-based approach.
Will generate advances in fields such as biodefense, outbreak management, agriculture and clinical microbiology.
