description: The Microarray represents a refined version of the Whole Mouse Genome Oligo Microarray 4x44K v2 (Design ID 026655, Agilent Technologies), called ?026655QM_RCUG_MusMusculus? (Design ID 084956) developed by the Research Core Unit Genomics (RCUG) of Hannover Medical School. Microarray design was created at Agilent?s eArray portal using a 1x1M design format for mRNA expression as template. All non-control probes of design ID 026655 have been printed four times within a region comprising a total of 181560 Features (170 columns x 1068 rows). Four of such regions were placed within one 1M region giving rise to four microarray fields per slide to be hybridized individually (Customer Specified Feature Layout). Control probes required for proper Feature Extraction software operation were determined and placed automatically by eArray using recommended default settings. All controls were finally deleted from the platform file.
  
  Arrays of this design have barcodes that begin with 16084956 or 2584956.
  
  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 non-control Probe ID.
  
  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.
