The tagged microarray marker (TAM) method allows high-throughput differentiation between predicted alternative PCR products. Typically, the method is used as a molecular marker approach to determining ...

Tumor resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs is a common problem that limits the efficacy of these drugs in the clinical setting. The mechanisms for how tumors develop resistance to chemotherapeutic ...

Processing cDNA microarray images is a crucial step in gene expression analysis, since any errors in early stages affect subsequent steps, leading to possibly erroneous biological conclusions. When ...

RNA interference technology, which is used in cell biology, has revolutionized functional research of the gene products in the last ten years. Now researchers have developed a method which allows a ...

Abstract: Microarray image gridding is one important step of microarray image analysis to determine 2D image coordinates of all array spots in the hybridized gene chip image. Accuracy of microarray ...

High-throughput RNAi screening is widely applied in biological research, but remains expensive, infrastructure-intensive and conversion of many assays to HTS applications in microplate format is not ...

Division of Biology, OSEL/CDRH/FDA. Tuberculosis is the second leading cause of adult mortality among infectious diseases and is responsible for about 2 million deaths per year worldwide. The World ...

Microarray data is inherently noisy due to the noise contaminated from various sources during the preparation of microarray slide and thus it greatly affects the accuracy of the gene expression. How ...
