To reap real knowledge from the mountains of data produced, however, requires interdisciplinary skills-a background not only in biology but also in computer science and the tools and techniques of data analysis. To help meet the challenges of DNA research, Data Analysis Tools for DNA Microarrays builds the foundation in the statistics and data analysis tools needed by biologists and provides the overview of microarrays needed by computer scientists. It first presents the basics of microarray technology and more importantly, the specific problems the technology poses from the data analysis perspective. It then introduces the fundamentals of statistics and the details of the techniques most commonly used to analyze microarray data. The final chapter focuses on commercial applications with sections exploring various software packages from BioDiscovery, Insightful, SAS, and Spotfire. The book is richly illustrated with more than 230 figures in full color and comes with a CD-ROM containing full-feature trial versions of software for image analysis (ImaGene, BioDiscovery Inc.) and data analysis (GeneSight, BioDiscovery Inc. and S-Plus Array Analyzer, Insightful Inc.). Written in simple language and illustrated in full color, Data Analysis Tools for DNA Microarrays lowers the communication barrier between life scientists and analytical scientists. It prepares those charged with analyzing microarray data to make informed choices about the techniques to use in a given situation and contribute to further advances in the field. |

Description: Protein microarrays are becoming a powerful tool in proteome, biochemical, and clinical studies. In addition to the quality of arrayed immobilized probe molecules, sensitivity of the microarray-based assay is highly dependent on the detection technique. Here we suggest four simple techniques for rapid detection of analytes bound to protein microarrays. The techniques employ functionalized magnetic and non-magnetic beads moved to, from, or along the array surface by external forces. In contrast to other labeling techniques actively controlled physical labels: (i) make detection extremely fast to allow microarray reading in seconds; (ii) provide a low background due to active removal of weakly bound beads; and (iii) provide a highly sensitive detection, since one antigen-antibody bond is capable of holding bead immobilized on the array surface. In combination with the electrophoretically assisted active immunoassay we described recently such active reading allows to reduce total indirect immunoassay time to 7-10min while having sensitivity in the femtomolar concentration range. High speed, sensitivity, and specificity make active bead-linked detection an ideal choice in rapid high-throughput screening and in emergency diagnostics. |

Duplexed sandwich immunoassays on a fiber-optic microarray [An article from: Analytica Chimica Acta] by: D.M. Rissin publisher: Elsevier, published: 2006-03-30 ASIN: B000PBZYVY This digital document is a journal article from Analytica Chimica Acta, published by Elsevier in 2006. The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser. Description: In this paper, we describe a duplexed imaging optical fiber array-based immunoassay for immunoglobulin A (IgA) and lactoferrin. To fabricate the individually addressable array, microspheres were functionalized with highly specific monoclonal antibodies. The microspheres were loaded in microwells etched into the distal face of an imaging optical fiber bundle. Two microsphere-based sandwich immunoassays were developed to simultaneously detect IgA and lactoferrin, two innate immune system proteins found in human saliva. Individual microspheres could be interrogated for the simultaneous measurement of both proteins. The working concentration range for IgA detection was between 700pM and 100nM, while the working concentration range for lactoferrin was between 385pM and 10nM. The cross-reactivity between detection antibodies and their non-specific targets was relatively low in comparison to the signal generated by the specific binding with their targets. These results suggest that the degree of multiplexing on this fiber-optic array platform can be increased beyond a duplex. |
