  • Abstract
    Microarray experiments are affected by several sources of variability. The paper demonstrates the major role of the day-to-day variability, it underlines the importance of a randomized block design when processing replicates over several days to avoid systematic biases and it proposes a simple algorithm that minimizes the day dependence.
