The excitement surrounding microarray technology has been tempered by
the limited ability of the general biomedical research community to gain access
to it. Given that the hardware required for exploitation of the technology
is becoming increasingly available, it is an appropriate moment to review
options, be they commercially or publically available. Here, we provide a
snapshot of the rapidly changing field of microarray−based RNA expression
analysis and consider the components and procedures for putting together a
complete system.
