TaqMan gene expression array cards and plates

High throughput gene expression analysis is a powerful technique that allows for the simultaneous examination of thousands of genes across multiple samples, providing comprehensive insights into cellular functions and biological processes. TaqMan Arrays contain TaqMan Gene Expression Assays dried down in three array formats: 96- and 384-well TaqMan Array plates, 384-well TaqMan Array cards (microfluidic cards), and OpenArray plates. These qPCR arrays are ideal for gene expression profiling and verification applications that require the analysis of tens to thousands of targets. The streamlined workflow of these arrays, which involves simply adding master mix and cDNA samples, helps ensure efficient and reproducible results, facilitating robust data acquisition and analysis. Additionally, their flexibility in format and customizable panel options make them suitable for a wide range of research needs, from small-scale studies to large-scale genomic projects.

Flexible (made-to-order) TaqMan gene expression arrays

TaqMan flexible gene expression array in card and plate formats

For scientists who prefer not to design their panels from scratch, flexible content TaqMan arrays are an excellent choice. Users can begin by selecting a panel of commonly studied pathways, diseases, biological processes, or cellular functions (human, mouse, or rat). Each panel is pre-populated with specifically chosen assays and serves as a starting point for modification using a simple online configuration tool found on the webpage linked below. Within the tool, users can swap out genes of interest, reposition assays, or change the layout to fit their experimental design. The minimum order quantity is six plates or ten cards.
