Activated Microarray Slides

SurModics offers a variety of microarray slides for customized DNA, RNA, and protein microarray development. CodeLink® and CodeLink® HD Activated Slides, and TRIDIA™ EP (Epoxy) Microarray Slides offer the precision, reproducibility, and sensitivity required for successful microarray applications and HTP screens. The key is SurModics' patented TRIDIA™ surface chemistry – a three-dimensional matrix comprised of three parts: a long-chain, hydrophilic passivating polymer, a reactive group, and photoreactive chemistry. The overall effect is a surface that can be covalently coupled to any substrate and that prevents nonspecific binding, while at the same time allowing for the homogenous coupling of different types of biomolecules, including DNA, RNA, protein, and cells. All of these slides are easy to use and are compatible with most available arraying equipment.
