Progress in DNA chip technology

Chin Med Sci J. 2001 Mar;16(1):59-62.

Abstract

DNA chip technology employs light-directed in situ oligonucleotide synthesis and/or DNA microarray printing device to produce arrays of large number of probes in the tiny surface of silicon substrates, which makes it possible that the gene detection be conducted efficiently with high speed and sensitivity. The DNA chip may take important part in genome research, gene diagnoses and so on.
