Frequently Answers and Questions

What is the purpose of this assay?

The Whole-Genome Gene Expression Direct Hybridization Assay is used to measure the abundance of RNA transcripts in a sample, providing insights into gene expression levels.

What are the key steps involved in the assay?

The assay involves several steps, including sample labeling, hybridization to a BeadChip, washing, signal detection, and imaging with an iScan System or BeadArray Reader.

How is the cRNA labeled?

The cRNA is labeled with biotin, which allows it to bind to streptavidin conjugated with a fluorescent dye during signal detection.

What is the role of the iScan System or BeadArray Reader?

The iScan System or BeadArray Reader is used to image the BeadChip and capture the fluorescent signals from the hybridized cRNA.
