Industry
If you are using DNA or protein arrays in the food-processing or pharmaceutical industry, the InnoScan range of scanners is perfect for your applications.
Pharmaceutical industry
The proteins array is a new tool for determining the profile of proteins that may be modified by the active ingredients in drugs. DNA arrays for genotyping are used to define the susceptibility of individuals of a given genotype to pharmacological treatments (pharmacogenomics).
If you use protein arrays (generally low or medium density) or even DNA arrays with a spots size greater than 40 µm, you can use the InnoScan 710 scanner to acquire your microarray images. If your slides are high density (spots smaller than 40 µm), then the InnoScan 900 scanner will give you the necessary resolution to read them.
Food industry
DNA arrays are used to detect and identify food contaminants whether they are of pathogenic or genetic (GMO) origin. All these microarrays can be read by our InnoScan models.
If you use high density slides (spots smaller than 40 µm), InnoScan 900 is the ideal scanner to read them with its 1 µm resolution. For low and medium density slides, InnoScan 710 is the most suitable scanner.
