Most commercially available technologies for global miRNA expression profiling are based on DNA microarrays, in which the probes are spotted onto a glass surface. Such probes, however, are not ...

The amplification step is unavoidable in current deep sequencing protocols, but microarrays often skip amplification in favor of directly labeling microRNA. This labeling step introduces much of ...

The main steps involved and limitations of microarray analysis will be encountered. Two stages can be distinguished in microarray experiments: a pre-microarray experiment phase (tissue handling ...
