geenisirujen
Geenisirujen, a Finnish term translating to "gene chips" or "gene arrays," refers to a laboratory tool used to detect and analyze the expression of thousands of genes simultaneously. These chips are small, solid supports, typically made of glass or silicon, onto which thousands of tiny spots of DNA are immobilized in a precise arrangement. Each spot, or probe, contains a known sequence of DNA that corresponds to a specific gene.
The process begins with extracting RNA from a biological sample, such as cells or tissue. This RNA
After incubation, the chip is washed to remove any unbound cDNA. The chip is then scanned with
