Method and apparatus for conducting an array of chemical reactions on a support surface

摘要

The invention provides apparatus and methods for determining the nucleotide sequence of target nucleic acids using hybridization to arrays of oligonucleotides. The invention further provides apparatus and methods for identifying the amino acid sequence of peptides that bind to biologically active macromolecules, by specifically binding biologically active macromolecules to arrays of peptides or peptide mimetics.
