The GeneChip Hybridization Oven 645i provides precise temperature and rotation control to ensure the successful hybridization of as many as 64 GeneChip cartridges at one time.

An ergonomic front-panel display contains system status indicators and buttons for adjusting the set point temperature and the rotisserie speed. This panel, in addition to a highly visible display and large window, provides immediate feedback of proper operation when using the oven.

The oven can be configured for 110 or 220V operation.

Hybridization Oven Array Cartridge Carriers
Cartridge carriers, designed specifically for use with the GeneChip Hybridization Oven 645i, are molded from advanced composite materials and hold eight GeneChip probe array cartridges per carrier. Carriers have barcodes for tracking purposes.

Why is it important to use Tough-Spots® labels when using GeneChip cartridge arrays?

Tough-Spots® labels are small adhesive stickers used to temporarily seal the backs of cartridge arrays during the overnight hybridization step. They are required to prevent loss of volume due to evaporation through the septa. We recommend using Tough-Spots® labels on Rolls from USA Scientific (Item No. 9185-0000)

What are the respective hybridization volumes based on array format for Affymetrix gene expression arrays?

Proper hybridization volume is critical to obtaining an even signal across a given array. Too little volume can lead to black circles in the middle of the array. Too much volume can leak out of the back of the array. The correct hybridization volume leaves enough room for a small air bubble to circulate around the array surface during the overnight hybridization. Here are the recommended hybridization and fill volumes based on the array format:
Array Format; Hybridization Volume; Fill Volume
- 49 Format (Standard); 200 µL; 250 µL
- 64 Format; 200 µL; 250 µL
- 100 Format (Midi); 130 µL; 160 µL
- 169 Format (Mini); 80 µL; 100 µL
- 400 Format (Micro); 80 µL; 100µL

What is the minimum order size for the Mouse Diversity Genoytping array?

Customers must purchase a minimum of 60 arrays to begin a study, because this number of samples is required for BLRMM-P to cluster the data properly. For subsequent orders, the minimum order is approximately 30 arrays.
