title: DNA Microarray Chips Made on Surface of Ceramic Slides.
abstract: As a novel technology, DNA microarray chips are being used in gene detections. To make DNA chips capable of multiple probing, ceramic slides, instead of silicon wafer or glass slides, were used as the substrate upon which DNA microarray are deposited. Our study indicates that the ceramic DNA microarray chips can be applied to multiple hybridization and detection procedures, showing high specificity. The advantages in using ceramic substrates are discussed.
