New high-throughput screening technologies have led to the identification of hundreds of genes with potential roles in cancer or other diseases. For evaluation of promising candidate genes, however, in-situ analysis of high numbers of clinical tissue samples is mandatory. The tissue microarray (TMA) technology greatly facilitates such analysis. In this

Abstract Microarrays are revolutionizing genetics by making it possible to genotype hundreds of thousands of DNA markers and to assess the expression (RNA transcripts) of all of the genes in the genome. Microarrays are slides the size of a postage stamp that contain millions of DNA sequences to which single‐stranded DNA or RNA can hybridize.

Microarrays are simple assays that measure the relative expression levels of tens of thousands of genes. Excitement about their importance and potential contributions to biology and medicine has been intense. Nonetheless, recent insights into the limitations and pitfalls of microarrays have led to caution about data interpretation. Microarrays are very

Microarrays for microbiologists [PDF]
We are witnessing a remarkable change in the scale of molecular microbiological research and we are entering an era of ‘big science’. In the past decade we have moved from a time when entire research papers were based on the sequencing of a single gene or operon to a single paper describing the sequence of a whole genome.

Electrochemical gas sensors are often used for identifying and quantifying redox-active analyte gases in the atmosphere. However, for amperometric sensors, the current signal is usually dependent on the electroactive surface area, which can become small ...
