HIGH-THROUGHPUT DIAGNOSTIC TESTING USING ARRAYS

摘要

The present invention relates to arrays comprising between 2 and 12.000 nucleic acid molecules, comprising a first set of nucleic acid molecules that comprise a nucleotide sequence that is able to hybridize to a gene that is used for normalization. The array may further comprise a second set of nucleic acid molecules that comprise nucleic acid sequences capable of hybridizing to nucleic acid molecules that are expressed in clinical relevant samples such as, for example, breast tissue. The invention further relates to a method for normalizing data. Further provided are methods of using an array according to the invention for distinguishing clinical samples.
