Product Descriptions

Now the best microarray glass and surface chemistries are available in a 96 well microarray format. These substrates can be used with the NanoPrint microarrayer, 946 Spotting Device and microplate track modules, which are designed for high throughput manufacturing in the 96 well format. Theses tools empower over 1,000 spots per each 96 well subarray.

All our surface chemistries set the standard for all microarray applications. Follow these links for more information on performance, protocols and applications. See bottom page for pricing.

SuperClean substrates are untreated and are delivered ready to use for custom surface chemistry preparation applications. This superior glass is cut to precision dimensions and polished to atomic flatness (50 Å over 76 mm) to provide the most homogenous surface available in industry. SuperClean Microarray Substrates have an average flatness of 2.0 nm or 20 angstroms, which corresponds to approximately 10 silicon dioxide bonds.
SuperAmine chemistry is used to immobilized unmodified long oligos and cDNA’s for gene expression microarrays.
SuperAldehyde is used to immobilized amino modified oligos, amino modified cDNA, proteins, cells, lysates, tissues, etc. This surface is specifically useful in immobilizing short oligos for SNP detection microarrays. SuperAldehyde has been used in many protein microarray applications.
SuperEpoxy chemistry is great for protein microarrays. It is also an excellent surface to immobilize cells, tissues, and carbohydrates.
Custom chemistries available, please call for a quote.

Glass Description and Specifications:

The glass used for these substrates has been especially manufactured exclusively for this application. This is highly polished glass to create superior homogeneity. No other microarray surface in the world can match our quality. Glass substrates of this optical quality are routinely sold at $300 dollars each by some vendors in industry.

Microarray Microplate Hardware
The Microarray Microplate Hardware contains 96 separate wells for microarrays. The glass plate comes with your favorite surface chemistry and is detachable from the rest of the chamber for superior spotting and scanning flexibility. Each subarray measures 7.7mm x 7.7mm, providing maximum printable real estate as well as conforming to robotic liquid handling platforms.
