What are the advantages of EpiTect ChIP qPCR Assays and Arrays?

EpiTect ChIP qPCR Assays and Arrays enable rapid, systematic whole genome interrogation of DNA-binding events for a DNA-binding protein of interest. This is due to QIAGEN's rigorously designed and validated qPCR primer collections, which amplify targets present in each consecutive 1kb genomic segment from -20 to +10 kb of every annotated human, mouse, and rat transcription start site (TSS). This approach generates a much richer, more quantitative data set, than the conventional gene-by-gene end-point PCR-based ChIP methods.
