Microarrays

Life Sciences

Stratagene offers a comprehensive collection of tools for microarrays that enables you to efficiently manufacture, process and analyze DNA or oligo glass slide-based arrays. Our products specialize in standardization and controls to increase your confidence in your microarray data.

Industry-leading Universal Microarray Standards

Stratagene's human, mouse and rat Universal Reference RNAs are industry standards for one- and two-colour microarray experiments. Stratagene's human Universal Reference RNA is used in the FDA Microarray Quality Control (MAQC) Project. Related publications are now available on the Nature Biotechnology web site.

Unbiased cDNA Labeling with High Signal-to-Noise Ratio

The FairPlay® III Microarray Labeling Kit features Stratagene's newly developed AffinityScript™ HC Reverse Transcriptase to improve reverse transcription on targets with secondary structure, allowing unbiased, efficient cDNA labeling.

Experience the Bliss of Complete Control

Stratagene's SpotReport® Alien Array Validation System controls for variability in any genome microarray, facilitates normalization, monitors hybridization specificity and checks overall data quality.

Agilent's Performance Leading Microarray Scanner Just Got Better

The Agilent DNA microarray scanner is a 48-slide scanning system enabled by Surescan High-Resolution Technology capable of scanning with 2,3,5 or 10 micron resolution that can read 1" x 3" glass slide microarrays and seamlessly feature extract them all using Agilent's Feature Extraction Software with robust statistical analyses. As microarray technology evolves and the size of microarray features decrease, the Agilent microarray scanner has evolved to accept these microarrays. With the introduction of the high-resolution scanner, Agilent is prepared to accept the new generation of high-density microarrays.
