Abstract
A functional DNA microarray was prepared through the laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) technique. In a first experiment, droplets of a buffer solution were spotted onto a substrate at different laser pulse energies. This allowed one to determine that uniform spots with a diameter as small as 40μm could be obtained. In a second experiment, a microarray containing two different human cDNAs and a negative control was spotted through LIFT and submitted to a hybridization assay. The obtained results demonstrated the full functionality of the microarray, which allowed us to prove the viability of LIFT for the production of DNA microarrays.
