Design of whole-genome tiling microarrays for pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. by Chong, Anna Siew Chyn.

“…Results show that a total of 62,561 60-mer PAO1 probes were created via Agilent eArray and optimized by CLC bio Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST). These optimal probes were used to design the WGTAs for chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and comparative genome hybridization (CGH) applications using Agilent eArray. …”

Gene-primer a PCR primer design program by Kok, Wui Lim.

“…To achieve this, we incorporated various parameters with biological significance into our program, namely, primer length, melting temperature of primers ,guanine/cytosine (GC) content of primer, homopolymeric runs in primer and self- hybridization tendency of primer. In addition, BLAST algorithm is utilized for the purpose of primer specificity check. …”
