Microarrays are a key scientific breakthrough that allows researchers to swiftly and efficiently evaluate the expression of hundreds or thousands of genes. The Genomic Facility, which is supported by DBT, provides quick, cost-effective, and cutting-edge microarray expertise for the execution and analysis of microarray investigations. This national facility houses cutting-edge instrumentation and infrastructure and serves all academic institutions with DSIR permission and Customs duty exemption, including universities, national labs, government institutes, and not-for-profit organizations. Users send samples to the facility, which are processed by the facility staff and then returned to the user with analytical data. This paid facility offers microarray services on a no-profit basis. Several users have been able to take advantage of microarray technology for their studies thanks to this facility. Several users from several universities and institutes have been able to take advantage of this facility for their studies.
