Abstract
A microarray is an arrangement of miniaturized test sites or "spots" on a
surface. Each spot is usually no more than 250 micrometers in diameter and
contains biological molecules-usually DNA or protein-which act as probes for a
test sample applied to the array. The surface may be a glass slide, a plastic
plate with wells or a polymer bead. The microarray format allows many tests or
experiments to be performed simultaneously, in parallel, leading to the
generation of huge amounts of biological information for the application of
only a tiny amount of sample. Microarrays are often also known as "biochips".
The purpose of this TriMark Publications report is to describe the specific
segment of the microarray market aimed at analysis of proteins and DNA.
Protein microarray applications include: 1) expression profiling; 2)
serum-based diagnostics; 3) protein-protein binding assays; 4 drug-target
binding; and 5) receptor epitope binding. It examines the market for DNA and
protein array testing equipment and supplies using screening reagents and
instruments for analysis of individual components in blood, serum or plasma.
It defines the dollar volume of sales, both worldwide and in the U.S., and
analyzes the factors that influence the size and the growth of the market
segments. Also examined are the subsections of each market segment, including
the research labs, hospital labs, and commercial laboratories. Additionally,
the numbers of institutions using this type of testing and the factors that
influence purchases are discussed. The report surveys almost all of the
companies known to be marketing, manufacturing or developing instruments and
reagents for the protein array market in the U.S. Each company is discussed in
depth with a section on its history, product line, business and marketing
analysis, and a subjective commentary of the company' s market position.
