Database       : southern_blot_designs

Fetched probe design: ProbeDesign2
  assembly      : NCBIM37
  chromosome    : 2
  id            : 24
  strand        : 1
  -------------

Design window length: 6327bp

All jobs for probe design are successful - total: 114
Fetched conf : Exonerate mouse_NCBIM37 (id: 2)
  Genome file(s) at: /blastdb/Mouse/NCBIM37/genome/softmasked_dusted
Fetched 2277 putative probes to analyse

Selection criteria to rank probes:
  Minimum score ratio             : 10
  (i.e. self-hit must score at least 10 times higher than the next best hit)
  Maximum percent repetitive bases: 5
  No positional bias in selecting probes
  ------------------------

Putative probes without hits                    : 0
Putative probes with single_self_hit            : 2277/2277
Putative probes that are unique                 : 15/2277
Putative probes exceeding selection criteria    : 476/2277 (both unique and not unique)
Putative probes with successfully-picked primers: 475/476

Identified 82 'redundant' probes exceeding selection criteria
(but wholly contained by other probes, and higher repetitive DNA content)
