FAST slides : A novel surface for microarrays

Brett A. Stillman, +1 more
- 01 Sep 2000 - 
- Vol. 29, Iss: 3, pp 630-635
TLDR
FAST slides have a much higher binding capacity for DNA and better spot-to-spot consistency than traditional poly-lysine-coated slides and are well suited for fluorescent detection because of their relatively low light scatter and efficient retention of arrayed DNA.
Abstract
We have evaluated FASTslides, a glass slide with a microporous polymeric surface that is a suitable substrate for microarray technology. The surface is a nitrocellulose-based polymer that binds DNA...

Proteomics: translating genomics into products?

Alan Dove
- 01 Mar 1999 - 
TL;DR: By cataloging the entire protein content of a cell, proteomics should not only provide insight into the molecular basis of life, but also accelerate the identification of molecular targets for use in diagnostics and therapeutics.
