Table 2.

Sensitivity and Target Size

Vendor Designed bait region size Percent of 3.5-Mb targeted region % Reads mapping to baits % Bait region covered >1× % Bait region covered >10×
Agilent 1,635,961 46.5% 69.9% 99.7% 98.0%
NimbleGen microarray 2,827,999 80.4% 81.4% 99.9% 99.7%
NimbleGen SeqCap 2,827,999 80.4% 82.7% 99.9% 99.6%

Each vendor generated a bait design with the goal of capturing the majority of the 3.5-Mb targeted region. Agilent's bait design covered only 1.6 Mb, whereas NimbleGen's covered 2.8 Mb. Each platform had high mapping and coverage rates to their bait regions.
