manufacture_protocol: OGT microarrays consist of 22,000 sixty nucleotide long oligonucleotide probes designed to hybridise throughout the E.coli genomic DNA. The microarrays are synthesised on a glass slide using an in-situ ink jet printer ensuring high quality arrays. These are designed to be used in two colour experiments i.e. one sample is labelled with one fluorescent dye (Cy3) and another sample is labelled with another fluorescent dye (Cy5). These arrays can also be used to compare two E.coli genomic DNAs for the presence of large deletions.
