Individual sites representing 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% methylation, that were consistent between the 2 assayed samples, were chosen for validation by Sequenom's MassArray to generate a standard by which to make calls on methylation levels. Primers were designed using MethPrimer and T7 tags were added as per the Sequenom guide.
