[BioC] setting up the data acquisition from the chip

[De Rinaldis, Emanuele]

Dear all,

I would like to have information on how to set up the data acquisition
process starting from the hibridized chip. 

I am using ScanArray express and several parameters have to be settled
(laser gain, laser power, quality criteria etc.). I started with a MWD human
test chip hibridized with a human test sample labeled with Cy5 and Cy3 and
now I am doing the scannning an quantitation tries, in order to adjust the
parameters.

Can anyone advice me a good reference and/or guidelines in order to set
these values in the proper way ?

thanks in advance,
Manuel
