摘要:
A microarray-based assay is provided, which is used for analyzing molecular interactions, including polynucleotides, polypeptides, antibodies, small molecule compounds, peptides and carbohydrates. Such method comprises coupling a target molecule to a particle and then binding to a probe molecule on microarray. In particular, multiplexed genetic analysis of nucleic acid fragments can be implemented. Specific genes, single nucleotide polymorphisms or gene mutations, such as deletions, insertions, and indels, can be identified. Coupled with microarray, the particles, themselves or further modified, facilitate the detection of results with non-expensive devices or even naked eyes. This technology enables the detection and interpretation of molecular interactions in an efficient and cost effective way.
