Microarray Chips (in Vitro Diagnosis)

Photochemical methods have enabled the preparation of microarrays through photolithography. The microarray system was developed from multiple analysis thorough spatially addressable parallel chemical synthesis of peptides. Later his technology has been expanded from gene analysis to proteome analysis to various omics analyses. On the other hand, photo-immobilization has been used for the immobilization of various materials on one substrate by means of photo-induced radical reaction, extending from protein immobilization to cell and virus immobilizations. Multiple analyses are believed to contribute to the development of novel clinical diagnoses.
