title: Adjustment of transfer tools for the production of micro- and macroarrays.
abstract: A transfer tool adjustment procedure for the generation of micro- and macroarrays is described. It is based on control spotting of solutions containing radioactive or fluorescent labels and the quantification of each obtained spot by standard image-analyzing software. This method provides a simple, rapid, and efficient way to control the quality and liquid delivery properties of spotting transfer tools.
