Biomarker Discovery with Tissue Microarrays Using PathXL™ TMA, TMA experiments can be performed anytime, anywhere, reducing administrative costs and time. PathXL™ TMA is perfectly designed to support TMA scoring workflow and already used by pathologists worldwide, the system allows configuration of experiments in minutes. Access and view clinical metadata, the TMA core, scoring criteria and the TMA map all on a single interface Easy to configure and easy to use. Navigation icons allow you to step from one core to another, pause and restart with the navigation system always keeping track of where you are on the TMA. Histopathology, IHC or FISH scores are securely stored centerally for immediate or subsequent review. PathXL™ TMA runs entirely online allowing you to get your TMA project off the ground immediately. PathXL™ TMA is unique, allowing you to manually score TMAs quickly and easily and helping you evaluate new tissue biomarkers in TMAs.

Microarray AnalysisMicroarrays, also known as biochips, are used for the detection and analysis of multiple genes, proteins, antibodies, or biomarkers on a single microchip. This can reveal information on protein or gene expression, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), copy number variation (CNV), epigenetics and patient health in clinical diagnostic tests. Discover a range of microarray scanners and prefabricated antibody, protein, RNA and DNA microarrays for your analysis or consider creating your own custom microarrays with a microarray printer. Find the best microarray products in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Cellular PathologyCellular Pathology deals with the microscopic analysis of tissue samples and cells. Sample preparation and processing includes fixation, staining, sectioning and slide mounting, using equipment such microtomes and cryostats. In choosing immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry kits, consider chromogens, staining method, antibodies, microscopes and imaging.TMA
