Abstract
⺠Cytogenetic, array and complete genome sequence were used to assess the integrity of human ES cell lines. ⺠FISH methods can detect low level contamination of cultures by genomically aberrant cells. ⺠Copy number variation assessment shows the vast majority of CNVs occur in regions common to normal human genomes. ⺠Complete genome sequence ensures integrity of key gene families (tumor suppressors/oncogenes). ⺠Sequence analysis can identify ABO blood type, HLA and disease-associated alleles.
