Laser capture microdissection (LCM) and whole genome amplification (WGA) of DNA from normal breast tissue --- optimization for genome wide array analyses

Table 2 Call rates for SNP arrays

DNA from blood and LCM tissue was amplified with different commercial kits. Stars indicate that input DNA comes from the same pool of DNA extracted from blood (*) or LCM tissue (**), respectively. Call rates for non-amplified DNA and WGA products from Repli-g^® (bold) are comparable and suggest that this method is best suited for whole genome amplification before SNP array analysis.
