        Fluor. Microscopy DNA Micro Arrays
        • Microarrays are versatile tools for high throughput screening. Nevertheless they are severely limited. Therefore the idea arose why not to copy microarrays? Why not make DNA, RNA and protein microarrays as high quality copies of a high quality original? It worked fine for text books and images. So why not apply it for DNA? Why not build a biomolecule copying machine? A biomolecule xeroxer?
