  • DNA microarrays are crucial tools for genetic analysis, including single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection.
  • Surface properties significantly influence hybridization efficiency and discrimination capabilities in microarrays.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel surface for improved biomolecule spacing in DNA microarrays.
  • To evaluate the impact of controlled mesospacing on SNP discrimination efficiency.
  • To investigate the influence of hybridization temperature and washing conditions on microarray performance.

Main Methods:
