There are a range of SNP chips available from Affymetrix, each differing in the number of SNPs they detect. The SNP sequences present on the Affymetrix arrays are taken from a variety of sources including the SNP consortium database, Perlgen Sciences Inc., Baylor data and the HapMap project. Go to www.affymetrix.com to view the various genechips available. Go to “Additional Support” under each chip to download genelists.
