Abstract: Long oligonucleotide arrays, as well as methods for their preparation and use in hybridization assays, are provided. The subject arrays are characterized in that at least a portion of the probes of the array, and usually all of the probes of the array, are long oligonucleotides, e.g. oligonucleotides having a length of from about 50 to 120 nt. Each long oligonucleotide probe on the array is preferably chosen to exhibit substantially the same high target binding efficiency and substantially the same low non-specific binding under conditions in which the array is employed. The subject arrays find use in a number of different applications, e.g. differential gene expression analysis.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods, compositions, kits and apparatus to identify and detect the presence or absence of target analytes. The embodiments of the present invention have utility in medical diagnosis and analysis of various chemical compounds in specimens and samples, as well as the design of test kits and apparatus for implementing such methods.

Abstract: Methods for performing array-based hybridization assays, as well as sets of control target nucleic acids for use in the subject methods and kits comprising the same, are provided. In the subject methods, test and control sets of target nucleic acids are contacted with an array(s), where the test and control sets of target nucleic acids may or may not be labeled differentially. The subject control sets of nucleic acids contain a plurality of distinct target nucleic acids, where at least a portion of the probes on the array are represented in the control set of target nucleic acids.
