Details of the microarray

Array name Description Technique Reference
Human Intestinal Bacteria Chip Low-density oligonucleotide microarray (microchip) for detection of 20 intestinal bacterial species (Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, B. vulgatus, B. fragilis, B. distasonis, Clostridium clostridiiforme, C. leptum, Fusobacterium prausnitzii, Peptostreptococcus productus, Ruminococcus obeum, R. bromii, R. callidus, R. albus, Bifidobacterium longum, B. adolescentis, B. infantis, Eubacterium biforme, E. aerofaciens, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecium) in human fecal samples. Each species is targeted by three 40-mer oligonucleotide probes (total 60 probes). Oligonucleotide probes spotted on aldehyde-group coated glass slides using a contact-spotting device.
