Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

DNA microarray technology facilitates rapid examination of thousands of genes at once, for the purposes of disease diagnoses, toxicology, gene discovery and drug discovery. The genes are arranged over a bi-dimensional grid on a tiny glass slide. Each spot on the microarray corresponds to a gene of interest, produced through the process of hybridization with complementary DNA, and labeled with either red or green dye for later identification. The microarray is then scanned, producing 2 images, one for each dye. The objective of this project is to create a fully automated Matlab GUI (graphical user interface), to process the microarray images and extract gene expressions without any human interference.
