Abstract

The dramatic progress in the analysis of human, animal and plant genomes as well as parallel developments such as the human cancer gene anatomy project have created an enormous demand for low-cost high throughput technologies for DNA and RNA analysis. Chip-based molecular techniques- if available in satisfactory quality for diagnostic applications- will enable major analytical issues in health care such as predisposition, cancer, infectious diseases and others to be addressed.
