Ordinatrix LLC products

Active Array 2.0 high dentisty silicon nanowell arrays offered in pre-set human proteome array comprised of 18,000 full length human proteins.

When it comes to research, one size does not fit all. Many projects require specialized arrays, designed specifically for particular projects, including specific protein subsets, proteins from different species, different isoforms of specific proteins or various mutant forms of an important clinical protein.  As our core technology is driven by cloned genes, Ordinatrix also offers custom built arrays displaying proteins specific to your unique research need.

Protein microarrays display proteins in high spatial density on a microscopic surface. They can be used to test a variety of functions of many proteins simultaneously including interactions with other macromolecules, functional activity, and their suitability as substrates of enzymes. Historically, these arrays have been produced by expressing and purifying proteins, which are then printed on the array surface. However, many challenges accompany this approach including the difficulty in purifying many proteins, a dynamic range in yields that spans several orders of magnitude (which is reflected in the widely varying amount of protein displayed on the array surface) and the danger of proteins becoming unfolded during the many manipulations, such as purification, storage and printing.
