For biologists, DNA microarrays present at once unprecedented opportunities and monumental challenges. In the opportunities column, microarrays produce genome-wide gene expression snapshots, ...

Autoimmune diseases that stem from an autoaggression of the immune system toward a subject's own tissues and organs still represent a field of intense research in the hope to identify why this occurs ...

Protein microarrays are many things to many people. Like the more mature DNA “chips”, they are often patterns of tiny spots arrayed on a microscope-type slide, used to determine the makeup and amount ...

The Geniom® RT Analyzer, a new benchtop microarray processing instrument, was presented by febit at Select Bioscience’s “Advances in Microarray Technology”. The platform complements Geniom® One, the ...

Nanopores are tiny, nanometer-scale apertures that are synthetically produced in manufactured materials as well as biological membranes. They allow ions or molecules to pass through and have been ...

As a graduate student, Eric Olson learned something about DNA microarrays: Biochip data management can be vexing. His graduate adviser abandoned a number of microarray experiments because it was too ...
