Genotyping
Precision insights for population genetics, trait mapping, and forensic science
At Decipher Genomics & Research, our genotyping workflows harness high-throughput analysis of SNPs and STRs to decode genetic variation with accuracy and efficiency. From large-scale population studies to personalized diagnostics and forensic profiling, we deliver actionable insights through robust, validated platforms.
Core Applications
- SNP Genotyping High-resolution detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms for association studies, pharmacogenomics, ancestry inference, and risk stratification.
- STR Analysis Short tandem repeat profiling for forensic identification, kinship studies, and genetic diversity assessments.
- Trait Mapping Genotype–phenotype correlation studies to uncover markers linked to physical, behavioural, or disease-related traits.
- Disease Predisposition Profiling Screening known variants associated with hereditary disorders and complex traits across populations.

Trait Mapping
Identify alleles linked to crop yield or livestock disease resistance
Pharmacogenomics
Screen for SNPs affecting drug response and metabolism
Forensic Profiling
STR genotyping for criminal justice and missing person ID
Population Genetics
Study allele frequencies in isolated or hybrid populations
Side-by-Side Comparison: SNP vs. STR Genotyping
| Feature | SNP Genotyping | STR Genotyping |
| Marker Type | Single base change | Short DNA repeats |
| Resolution | High—covers thousands to millions of loci | Moderate—dozens of loci |
| Use Cases | Trait mapping, disease risk, ancestry, pharmacogenomics | Forensics, kinship analysis, population diversity |
| Detection Platform | Microarray, NGS | Capillary electrophoresis, NGS |
| Output | Genotype calls (AA, AT, TT) | Repeat numbers (e.g. 10, 12) |
Our Capabilities
- Platform options include microarray-based and NGS-based genotyping
- Compatibility with DNA from human, animal, and microbial sources
- ISO-compliant lab environment with rigorous QC and contamination control
- End-to-end service: DNA QC → Genotyping → Statistical analysis → Custom reports
Whether you’re mapping traits, validating markers, or identifying individuals – Decipher delivers data with precision and purpose.
