Oligonucleotide microarray (DNA chip)–based hybridization analysis is a promising new technology which potentially allows rapid and cost–effective screens for all possible mutations and sequence ...

Figure 1: (A) Flowchart depicting the algorithm used for developing genome-directed primers from bacterial genomes. To test the usefulness of the mtGDPs for in vivo gene expression analysis, we asked ...

Persistent Doubts about Reproducibility and Compatability of Data Are Being Overcome One of the hottest research tools these days within the academic, biotech, and pharma communities is DNA ...

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 ...

Chief technology officer Don Montgomery explains that CombiMatrix's system synthesizes oligonucleotide probes directly on the chip through electrochemical methods. As a result, no mechanical parts are ...

A new tool for investigating the rice genome has been developed by researchers at UC Davis led by Pamela Ronald, professor of plant pathology. The inexpensive, publicly-available rice DNA microarray ...

Ron Davis and I were studying plant transcription factors in 1990, but progress was slow and arduous because the gene expression tools were so primitive. We conceived of the DNA microarray in 1993 to ...

Nature uses a common framework when building organisms as different as yeast, worms, fruit flies, mice, and humans. This makes it possible for scientists to learn about how our own genes work by ...

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 ...

Ariosa Diagnostics announced that its scientists have successfully tested and implemented a microarray DNA quantification method for Ariosa's Harmony Non-Invasive Prenatal Test SAN JOSE, California, ...

An international research team led by the University of Vienna has succeeded in developing a new version of RNA building blocks with higher chemical reactivity and photosensitivity. This can ...
