Microarray

A microarray is a multiplex lab-on-a-chip. It is a 2D array on a solid substrate (usually a glass slide or silicon thin-film cell) that assays large amounts of biological material using high-throughput screening methods.

Types of microarrays include:
 * DNA microarrays, such as cDNA microarrays, oligonucleotide microarrays and SNP microarrays
 * MMChips, for surveillance of microRNA populations
 * Protein microarrays
 * Tissue microarrays
 * Cellular microarrays (also called transfection microarrays)
 * Chemical compound microarrays
 * Antibody microarrays
 * Carbohydrate arrays (glycoarrays)
