Premium substrates for Microarray™ is used on a standard microscope slide 1 x 3", selective glass. All of the following slides are pre-packaged in a secure, no-contact mBox™, then vacuum-sealed in a foil barrier bag prior to shipping. Each package contains 20 slides.
Aminopropylsilane Coated Substrates
SuperChip™ Aminopropylsilane coated substrates are designed for microarray™️ fabricated with the PCR products as probes. Manufactured from the highest quality, low fluorescence glass, SuperChip™️ features a consistent, superior surface coating to provide a uniform DNA immobilizing surface. The result is the slide that binds an optimal amount of probe while minimizing nonspecific binding of labeled targets assuring high density of reactive groups and eliminating virtually all surface artifacts.
These SuperChip™️ substrates are compatible with commercial microarray spotting and detection system. The SuperChip™️ cleaning and coating process is tightly controlled in a HEPA filtered environment. Quality control includes contact angle and background fluorescence measurement of representative samples.
