10] of template DNA concentration by using PicoGreen dye (Molecular Probes, Eugene, OR, USA) with the VersaFluor fluorometer (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA).
With this technology, cells or tissues are exposed to toxicants, and then gene expression is measured by collecting mRNA, converting mRNA to labeled cDNA, hybridizing it to the DNA array, staining it with an appropriate dye, and visualizing the hybridized genes using a fluorometer (DeRisi et al.
The fluorometer is used to measure the fluorescence signal of a suspension of microspheres with immobilized fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC).
