Based on electrostatic repulsion — in which objects with the same electrical charge repel one another — the technique is relatively simple and inexpensive to implement, and can be carried out in a ...

A DNA microarray (also commonly known as gene chip, DNA chip, or biochip) is a collection of microscopic DNA spots attached to a solid surface. Scientists use DNA microarrays to measure the expression ...

A recent study highlights how DNA microarray technology enables high-throughput gene analysis, supporting variation detection, expression profiling, and clinical research. By refining probe design and ...

Microarray technology allows for the multiple analysis of gene expression in a single reaction. While DNA microarrays are the most common, there is increasing utilization of protein, peptide and ...

A standard Internet protocol that checks errors made during email transmissions has now inspired a revolutionary method to transform DNA microarray analysis, a common technology used to understand ...

As genomics morphs into proteomics and the quest to understand the biological functions of proteins accelerates, researchers continue to look for the best methods that will speed their understanding; ...

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 ...

Takara Bio Inc., a biotechnology company in Otsu, Japan, has developed a system which allows for mass production of a wide variety of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) fragments needed to make DNA ...

Researchers have invented a technique in which DNA assays -- the key to personalized medicine -- can be read and evaluated with no need of elaborate chemical labeling or sophisticated instrumentation.

Reviewed by Dr. Tomislav Meštrović, MD, Ph.D. The microarray is a recently developed technology used in cancer research and in the pharmacological treatment of other diseases such as oral lesions. In ...
