description: The microarray slide has the dimensions of a regular microscopy slide. Its grid/sub-grid structure is in the uploaded raw data file.
manufacture_protocol: Takara's microarrays contain denatured double stranded cDNAs arrayed on glass slides. Spot size of the present platform is 150um with space between spots 300um. The grid structure of this platform is 2 x 2 (2 meta-rows x 2 meta-columns). Each subgrid has a structure of 16x18 (16 rows x 18 columns). It has 886 unique genes. Glass slides contain silica-bearing amino residues which facilitate electrostatic coupling attachment of DNA fragments. Finally, chips are printed with a 12-pin robotic head.
