description: This microarray contains 60-mer probes for 15,208 fathead minnow sequences.  Because there are eight arrays per slide, this is the most economical array.  This microarray is 100% ANNOTATED.  Genes included on this array matched the Nonredundant database with an evalue <E-05, or the Nucleotide database with evalue <E-06.  All duplicate accession numbers were removed.  The genes are part of a wide variety of biological pathways and processes including: reproduction, cell communication, metabolism, homeostasis, and others.  This array is perfect for those researchers who do not want to worry about “no hits.”
manufacture_protocol: EcoArray selected Agilent Technologies as the manufacturer of our microarrays for environmental toxicology.  Agilent Technologies is a leading supplier of genomics and proteomics products.  Using their SurePrint inkjet deposition of in situ synthesized 60-mer oligonucleotides, all microarrays are manufactured on superior quality 1” x 3” (24.2 mm x 76.2 mm) treated glass slides for overall excellent performance.
