In several recent publications the term ‘molecular karyotyping’ was adopted to describe the use of microarrays for detecting genomic imbalances, in analogy to conventional karyotyping based on ...

The field of DNA microarray data analysis is getting increasingly complicated as scientists develop new array technologies and analysis algorithms, yet accurate introductory information on the subject ...

Chromosomal microarray analysis, a two-year-old gene-chip technology used to look for potential genetic abnormalities in children, has proved to be remarkably sensitive in detecting abnormalities in ...

Genetic research labs are under constant pressure to increase their throughput while bringing down costs. Even though emerging new technologies can help labs expand their analysis capabilities, it’s ...

Microarrays have been critical components of biomedical and clinical research strategies since their first mention in a 1995 study. Initially designed to measure gene expression, or transcription, ...

A large study from Children's Hospital Boston and the Boston-based Autism Consortium finds that a genetic test that samples the entire genome, known as chromosomal microarray analysis, has about three ...

Reviewed by Dr. Tomislav Meštrović, MD, Ph.D. The microarray is a very recent development in the field of biotechnology. Scientists are now able to understand the gene functions of any organism by ...
