Get Started

DesignStudio is integrated with the MyIllumina ordering system. You will need a MyIllumina account to access the design tool. To create an account, visit the MyIllumina website.

You can create custom panel designs for the following assays:

Genotyping

• Infinium HTS

• Infinium XT (for select customers)

• Infinium EX-24

• Infinium EX-48

Methylation

• Infinium HTS

• Infinium EX-24

• Infinium EX-48

You can also add custom content to commercially available Illumina catalog arrays.

Microarray Designer Workflow

Familiarize yourself with the workflow of the Microarray Designer:

1. Create Input Files

   • Use templates from download templates to create score, sequence, gene, identity, coordinates and region files.

2. Select Assay

   • Choose assay option in Microarray Assay Designer tool.

3. Configure Design

   • Select species.

4. Upload Targets

   • Upload input files to design tool.

5. Review Design

   • Review design details and summary.

6. Order Design

   • Finalize product name and complete order.
