ARRAY SYNTHESIZER
The CustomArray B3™ Synthesizer offers researchers the ability to fabricate low-, medium-, and high-density microarrays. The platform is easy to use and enables researchers to synthesize novel applications, build from the CustomArray list of pre-designed microarrays, or customize your own microarray designs.
Microarray Throughput |
Fabricates one to 32 microarrays in less than 24 hours |
Ease of Use |
Automated to minimize operator supervision (e.g. runs overnight) In-situ Synthesis - Free of spotting or printing Oligonucleotides no longer need to be ordered or held in inventory – reducing costs of ownership Arrays can be read on chip readers using either single-color or two-color fluorescence or using electrochemical detection via readout on the ElectraSense chip reader (reads 12k chip in 20-45 seconds) |
Cost Efficiency |
Arrays are re-usable, typically up to three times after initial usage |
Quality |
Produces commercial-grade high quality microarrays High oligonucleotide coupling efficiencies On-board quality control systems Established quality-control procedures |
Open Platform |
Complete freedom to develop new and novel applications |
Control |
Manage production schedules and supply Maintain control of proprietary probe designs Change designs to meet updates to sequence databases (especially useful for miRNA detection arrays) |
Applications |
CustomArray microarrays are used for genome-wide and focused. Chose from a expanding list of array designs:
and more. |
Density Choices |
Low (2,240)– using 4X2K array chips |
