Methods and algorithms for performing quality control during gene expression profiling on DNA microarray technology

摘要

Methods and algorithms for quality control in gene expression profiling on DNA microarray technology are disclosed including methods and algorithms for assessing quality control of the printing of a DNA microarray, the preparation of an RNA sample, the labeling of probes, the hybridization between a DNA microarray and probes, the result of washing procedures, the result of scanning procedures, and for quantifying the gene expression data produced by imaging the hybridized DNA microarray.
