Advances in technology have made different microarray platforms available. Among the many, Illumina BeadArrays are relatively new and have captured significant market share. With BeadArray technology, high data quality is generated from low sample input at reduced cost. However, the analysis methods for Illumina BeadArrays are far behind those for Affymetrix oligonucleotide arrays, and so need to be improved.
