How has the GeneChip Rat Expression Set 230 design and performance been tested?
Briefly, during development, a tissue (11 tissues) and cell line (4 cell lines) panel was hybridized to both Rat 230 and RG-U34 arrays. This sample set was used to evaluate tissue-specific expression patterns and for studies to compare data from the previous and current designs, including analysis of variance. A set of 41 prelabeled spikes derived from clones of mouse genes was used to evaluate sensitivity.PCR (TaqMan) to evaluate performance.
