CodeLink Gene Expression Bioarray System
Making it easier to understand biological systems
The CodeLink Gene Expression Bioarray System is an integrated platform that includes a range of high-quality, pre-arrayed oligonucleotide bioarrays, target preparation and bioarray processing reagents, easy-to-use processing tools, software, and optimized protocols.
CodeLink Gene Expression Bioarrays demonstrate superior results:
- SENSITIVITY down to less than one transcript per cell enables detection of more low abundance genes.
- SPECIFICITY up to 90% probe-to-target sequence identity leads to high levels of discrimination between homologous genes.
- DYNAMIC RANGE > 3 orders of magnitude along with > 98% of probes within two-fold detectable change result in more usable data per bioarray.
- Signal REPRODUCIBILITY with observed signal CVs of < 10% ensures minimal technical variation and enhanced discriminatory power
Proprietary 3-D surface technology for high sensitivity and specificity
The foundation of every CodeLink Bioarray is a proprietary 3-D aqueous gel matrix slide surface with 30-base oligonucleotide probes. Probe attachment is accomplished through covalent interaction between the amine-modified 5' end of the dispensed oligonucleotide and the activated functional group present in the gel matrix. The 3-D gel matrix provides an aqueous environment that holds the probe away from the
