description: 
  B. taurus Oligo Microarray
  
  Agilent has developed a genome-wide bovine microarray to enable scientists to study gene expression profiling at the global level. Agilent's Bovine Oligo – 4X44K microarray covers 21,475 unique genes and transcripts of Bos Taurus, two probes for each gene are produced. Oligonucleotides, 60-mers, are synthesized directly on glass slide using the Agilent’s SurePrint Technology.
  
  Arrays of this design have barcodes that begin with 16015354 or 2515354.
  
  Orientation:
  Features are numbered numbered Left-to-Right, Top-to-Bottom as scanned by an Agilent scanner (barcode on the left, DNA on the back surface, scanned through the glass), matching the FeatureNum output from Agilent's Feature Extraction software.
  
  The ID column represents the Agilent Feature Extraction feature number.
  
  Rows and columns are numbered as scanned by an Axon Scanner (barcode on the bottom, DNA on the front surface).
  
  To match data scanned on an Axon scanner, use the RefNumber column contained in the Agilent-provided GAL file as the ID_REF column in sample submissions.
  
  *** A different version of this platform with the Agilent Probe names in the ID column is assigned accession number GPL9712.
