With the genome sequences of dozens of species now complete, focus is shifting to the rapid elucidation of gene function. A number of high-throughput methods, such as protein-protein interaction ...

Most pharmaceuticals sold today have their origin in a biochemistry laboratory. Drug discovery has traditionally started with a biochemical pathway implicated in a pathophysiological process. An ...

Microarrays can be manufactured to different sizes with the number of probes on a microarray ranging from ten to five million. The fabrication of microarrays, particularly how the probes are ...

Microarrays are a two-dimensional arrangement of biological samples, with samples placed in spots numbering in the thousands and organized into columns and rows. They allow for efficient analysis of ...

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 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 ...

AMSBIO reports that its extensive range of FDA tissue microarrays reliably enhances tissue cross-reactivity (TCR) and other target validation studies. These high-quality tissue microarrays (TMAs) ...

CD BioSciences, a US-based biotechnology company focusing on the development of imaging technologies, is pleased to announce the launch of its new line of Circulatory System Tissue Microarrays to the ...

Yes, many are attracted to next-generation sequencing, but loyalty to chip-based phenotyping has its rewards, particularly in screens of large sample sets. The microarray, the legacy technology for ...

Launched in 1990, The Human Genome Project was a monumental effort to sequence and analyze the entire human genome to understand how genetics influence health. While the Human Genome Project helped ...

For most researchers DNA microarrays are synonymous with high-throughput gene expression analysis. But they also are invaluable genotyping tools. Now that the International HapMap Project (see article ...
