Quality
Creating reproducible, quality data—that's the overreaching criterion when assessing gene expression platforms. We understand that a microarray's quality begins in the early manufacturing stages. After random bead assembly, every bead's location is identified. This process validates the hybridization performance of every bead on every array. That's why our BeadChips are the industry's only 100 percent quality-controlled arrays. Our gene expression platform ensures quality in other ways as well, including:
- Full-length 50-mer probes provide better selectivity and sensitivity.
- Feature redundancy (30x average) delivers high-confidence results.
- Multi-sample format creates low array-to-array variability.
