In each type of cell, like a muscle cell or a skin cell, different genes are expressed (turned on) or silenced (turned off). If the cells that are turned on mutate, they could—depending on what role ...

Label a nebulizer with the name of the DNA sample to be treated, and cover the gas hose connection with Parafilm. Place the nebulizer on ice. The DNA may be fragmented using another method (for ...

Here we present a method for the fabrication of microarrays in which presynthesized oligonucleotides are ejected onto a glass surface by a Bubble Jet printing device. The oligonucleotides are then ...

Students model how scientists use DNA microarrays to determine levels of gene expression in breast cancer patients, and then choose treatments based on what they learn. Normal-functioning DNA codes ...

Since their inception in 1995, DNA microarrays have become the icon of the genomics revolution. Everyone with any interest has become familiar with the images of precise rows and columns of colored ...

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 ...
