Novel phage-based microarrays enable high-throughput analysis of humoral immune activity in cancer patients.

"The recombinant phages used for fabricating phage arrays were initially selected via the use of random peptide phage libraries and breast cancer patient serum antibodies," scientists in Norway explained. "The peptides displayed by the phages retained their ability to be recognized by serum antibodies after immobilization."

"The recombinant phage microarrays were screened against either breast cancer or healthy donor serum antibodies" by L. Cekaite and coauthors at the Norwegian Radium Hospital, who devised a "model-based statistical method"...
