We examine emerging consensus points for five key components of microarray analysis — design, preprocessing, inference, classification and validation. Biological replication is important in the design ...

The first study of the use of microarray patches to vaccinate children has shown that the method is safe and induces strong immune responses. The phase 1/2 randomized trial compared results from the ...

Reviewed by Dr. Tomislav Meštrović, MD, Ph.D. The microarray is a recently developed technology used in cancer research and in the pharmacological treatment of other diseases such as oral lesions. In ...

Genetic abnormalities have been associated with 6 to 13% of stillbirths, but the true prevalence may be higher. Unlike karyotype analysis, microarray analysis does not require live cells, and it ...

Microarrays provide a way of organizing biological samples for high-throughput analysis. Samples are arranged in columns and rows upon a support surface consisting of a glass slide, a nitrocellulose ...

A survey of scientists developing bioprocesses found efficiency to be the top concern, with pressure growing each year to “produce more, do it more quickly, and do so with fewer resources.” 1 Yet, ...
