Antibody microarrays are becoming a major tool for the parallel analysis of complex samples. So far, many efforts have been made to increase the complexity and sensitivity of antibody microarrays. In contrast to enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) experiments, not all antibodies remain functional in the microarray format. Sensitivity is very much dependent on the type of coating and its application. The method described in this chapter is a quick and reliable method that has been very useful in determining the functionality of antibodies and the suitability of coatings for antibody microarrays. At the same time, a detailed description of how to prepare an inexpensive and highly efficient antibody microarray surface is given.

Immunoprecipitation01:20

Immunoprecipitation

Immunoprecipitation, or IP, is a widely used technique that employs protein-antibody interactions to isolate proteins or protein complexes in their native state for studying protein-protein interactions, quaternary structures, or supramolecular complexes. Various modifications of the technique, including chromatin IP, cross-linking IP, and fluorescence IP, are commonly used.

DNA Microarrays

Microarrays are high-throughput and relatively inexpensive assays that can be automated to analyze large quantities of data at a time. They are used in genome-wide studies to compare gene or protein expression under two varied conditions, such as healthy and diseased states. Microarrays consist of glass or silica slides on which probe molecules are covalently attached through surface functionalization. Most commonly, the slides are prepared through the chemisorption of silanes to silica...
