The MicroArray Quality Control (MAQC) consortium has evaluated methods for making clinically useful predictions from large-scale gene expression data. Existing clinical predictors have well-known ...

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 ...

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 ...

Reviewed by Dr. Tomislav Meštrović, MD, Ph.D. The microarray is a very recent development in the field of biotechnology. Scientists are now able to understand the gene functions of any organism by ...

Protein and peptide microarrays, the emerging tools for proteomics and clinical assays, are high-throughput methods that track binding events and activities, and decide the function of proteins on a ...

Microarrays have been critical components of biomedical and clinical research strategies since their first mention in a 1995 study. Initially designed to measure gene expression, or transcription, ...
