Multi-sample array formats |
| BeadArray technology is deployed on either of two multi-sample array formats for DNA or RNA-analysis applications. With both the 96-sample Array Matrix and the multi-sample BeadChip formats, uniform pits are etched into the surface of each substrate to a depth of approximately 3 microns prior to assembly. Beads are then randomly assembled and held in these microwells by Van der Waals forces and hydrostatic interactions with the walls of the well. |
| |
| The 96-sample Array Matrix format is used in Illumina's GoldenGate Genotyping, DASL Gene Expression, and Focused Arrays applications. |
| |
| The BeadChip format is used in Illumina's Infinium Genotyping, DASL Gene Expression, and Focused Arrays applications. |
