Review :
DNA Microarrays: A Molecular Cloning Manual provides the reader with a wealth of information about how to manufacture microarrays, design and carry out microarray experiments, and analyze microarray data. The editors have lined up an impressive cast of authors who are in many cases the world experts on the particular aspect of microarrays technology that they describe... Overall, this is an excellent book, which will prove invaluable to any researcher involved in microarray analysis. It offers a comprehensive overview of the microarray technology as well as its satellite techniques, such as LCM, CGH arrays, and tissue arrays, and is the most comprehensive and up-to-date manual currently available on DNA microarrays. Journal of Proteome Research DNA Microarrays is a welcome addition to the library of anyone using microarrays. In the tradition of Cold Spring Harbor manuals, this volume provides detailed protocols for every aspect of the technology, from microarray fabrication to data analysis. The protocols cull the expertise of top microarray researchers and cover both expression profiling and analysis of genomic DNA... Overall, the protocols are comprehensive and sufficiently detailed for newcomers to microarrays, and the book contains enough pearls to ensure that it will also be welcomed in experienced microarrays labs.
