RNArticles: RNA Amplification Used to Develop a New In Vitro HCMV Assay

Gene arrays can be used to simultaneously measure the expression levels of thousands of genes in a single experiment. One limitation of this technology is that large amounts of RNA may be required for each array hybridization experiment -- typically 10 g of total RNA. This becomes problematic when working with limited sampl...
