AuroGene™ microarray scanner is a high performance flatbed scanner

    modified for capturing low-noise analytical quality images of microarrays

    with up to 30,000 spots on a standard 1”x3” glass slide. The scanner is

    provided with AuroGene™ software, which includes a set of utilities for

    controlling image acquisition and automated processing multiple slides

    with individually set capturing parameters,  post-capturing image enhancing,

    and quantification of array spots. The software measures thirteen parameters

    for each array spot, including integral and peak intensity, local background,

    spot size, ellipticity (shape), and alignment on a microarray grid. These

    parameters are used to flag-out outlier spots, and allow to achieve higher

    accuracy of microarray measurements.
