Corning Life Sciences, 2Promega Corporation

Promega Corporation and Corning Incorporated have developed two new systems that provide fully integrated sets of reagents for use in microarray analysis. The Pronto!™ Plus Direct System provides reagents for generating fluorescent cDNA by direct incorporation of Cy®-labeled dCTP. The Pronto!™ Plus Indirect System allows users to generate fluorescent cDNA via synthesis of aminoallyl-modified cDNA, followed by post-synthesis conjugation of CyDye™ NHS ester. Both systems provide reagents and protocols specifically optimized for microarray applications and include components for cDNA labeling and cDNA clean-up as well as solutions for array conditioning and hybridization. Users can also choose versions of both systems that include the SV Total RNA Isolation System, which provides a fast and simple procedure for purifying intact total RNA from a variety of sources. These integrated sets of reagents enable researchers to achieve the highest possible quality, consistency, and reproducibility throughout their microarray processes. Here we describe the system components and present typical data generated using these systems.
