One of the most amazing phenomena in biology is the precisely coordinated expression of thousands of genes in an organism: every gene must be expressed at the right time, in the right place. Not ...

We reviewed the options for the manufacture and use of DNA microarrays in the original Chipping Forecast 1 in 1999. Since then, the number of companies that produce microarrays equipment and reagents ...

The human genome project was undertaken to determine the human DNA sequence and analyze variation among individuals. To make use of this information, tools were developed that could collect and ...

Companies in the microarray sector are trying to take the technology out of core facilities and put it into the hands of individual researchers by developing technologies such as smaller, less-costly ...

The research community's rapid acceptance of microarrays notwithstanding, technical challenges remain. Biochip developers continue to grapple with these issues while upgrading their offerings and ...

Processes Involved in Using DNA Microarray Instrumentation in Protein Microarray Workflow Protein microarrays offer the ability to measure protein expression and antibody binding in a high-throughput ...

Microarrays are used to detect the expression of a diverse range of thousands of genes. They include microscopic slides that can be printed with a spot of a known sequence of DNA. This sequence then ...

Different applications have different requirements, so researchers need to carefully weigh their options when deciding whether to switch to a new platform. [© WavebreakmediaMicro – Fotolia.com] With ...

The first study of the use of microarray patches to vaccinate children has shown that the method is safe and induces strong immune responses. The phase 1/2 randomized trial compared results from the ...
