Microarray Technology

Microarray technology has a wide usage in the fields of genomics and proteomics and enables us to monitor innumerable biological interactions simultaneously. This technology is very efficient and analyzes a lot of data in a short interval. The findings of microarray are then processed analyzed using bioinformatics. The basis of all microarrays is similar: there is a solid surface on which specific ligands are spotted. Then, a biological solution is poured on the surface and based on the binding of the ligand to the specific substance, the results are analyzed.
