Tissue Microarrays (TMA) are invaluable tools for studying multiple sample arrays at once. TMA technology increases simultaneous biomarker information density using tissues from a sample selection grouped by criteria including organ, individual or disease state. Combining these attributes of TMA with studies of Cancer, a complex disease state itself, highlights the value of TMA for studies of Cancer Biomarkers.
Cancer TMA provide the opportunity to study multiple tumor types with multiple specific targets utilizing antibody probes in a convenient single slide. More information, coupled with faster throughput with automated or imaging microscopy provide a valuable system for biomarker discovery. |
