Bio-Inspired Microsystem for Robust Genetic Assay Recognition

Figure 6

(a) Fluorescence image of a sampled microarray of cDNA, Cy3 dye, and Cy5 dye mix (only Cy5 red fluorescence is shown) [19]. Each cluster consists of a grid of sample dots. Each dot corresponds to the location of a cDNA probe to which mRNA from the cells of interest have been bound. (b) Pixellated images of the clusters from the left microarray photo. Each cluster consists of a pixel array that mimics a normalized biosignature pattern. The first three randomly picked desired patterns (enclosed in the solid line frame) have indices (0, 0), (0, 1), and (1, 0), accordingly. The rest unwanted patterns share index (1, 1).
