A. Yes, but not in detail. âMany scientists use electron, scanning tunneling and atomic force microscopes to view individual DNA molecules,â said Michael W. Davidson, curator of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory at Florida State University.
A DNA microarray (also commonly known as DNA chip or biochip) is a collection of microscopic DNA spots attached to a solid surface. Scientists use DNA microarrays to measure the expression levels of large numbers of genes simultaneously or to genotype multiple regions of a genome. Each DNA spot contains picomoles (10â12 moles) of a specific DNA sequence, known as probes (or reporters or oligos).
