Microarray Data Analysis Services

Arrayit Microarray Data Analysis Services of 16-bit tagged image file format (TIFF) files generated by high-speed fluorescence scanners using customer content microarray slides from Arrayit, Agilent and other microarray suppliers. Price is per microarray slide (1 x 25 x 76 mm) scanned at 3 µm resolution. Data analysis results are delivered to services customers as text files (.txt) containing a complete statistical output of all quantified spots on the microarray slide

Services - Microarray Scanning and Data Analysis Services for Research, Life Sciences, Microarray Testing and Pharmaceutical Applications

Arrayit offers the market's finest microarray scanning and data analysis services including high resolution scanning, data quantification and data analysis of microarrays manufactured by Arrayit, Agilent and other suppliers. Scanning is performed using the latest microarray laser scanners providing 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, 5.0 and 10 µm scanning resolution at optimized gain and laser settings for optimal signal-background-ratios for DNA, RNA, protein, peptide, and many other types of printed microarrays. Autoloaders enable high throughput barcode reading and microarray scanning of up to 24 microarrays per run and thousands of microarrays per day for small research projects from academic labs and larger studies from hospitals, government agencies, biotechs, pharmas and microarray testing companies. Data are downloadable from our confidential servers to allow access to scanned data in real time.
