cDNA microarray screening in food safety

cDNA Microarray Data Normalization

cDNA microarray screening for taste-bud-specific genes.

Information about taste signaling molecules is still insufficient to understand the mechanisms of taste signal transductions, while novel taste receptors have been found recently. There are two strategies to discover novel taste signaling related genes; one strategy is homology based cloning and another strategy is global gene screening. Homology based cloning has been mainly used to find out t...

DNA microarray technology in nutraceutical and food safety.

The quality and quantity of diet is a key determinant of health and disease. Molecular diagnostics may play a key role in food safety related to genetically modified foods, food-borne pathogens and novel nutraceuticals. Functional outcomes in biology are determined, for the most part, by net balance between sets of genes related to the specific outcome in question. The DNA microarray technology...

Normalization of cDNA microarray data.

Normalization means to adjust microarray data for effects which arise from variation in the technology rather than from biological differences between the RNA samples or between the printed probes. This paper describes normalization methods based on the fact that dye balance typically varies with spot intensity and with spatial position on the array. Print-tip loess normalization provides a wel...
