Patent ID: 11691433

Abstract:
Method for manufacturing a microarray and verifying the quality of said microarray, wherein the method comprises: —providing at least one reagent, —loading said at least one reagent in a dispensing print head, in a predetermined arrangement, —moving the print head with respect to a substrate and dispensing said at least one reagent on the substrate, during a print pass, to obtain a microarray, —illuminating the substrate using illumination means and obtaining an image of the printed microarray on the substrate, using a camera, —processing the obtained image to verify the quality of the microarray, wherein the step of obtaining an image of the printed microarray comprises: —illuminating the substrate and obtaining an image of the microarray by means of illumination means and a camera which are connected to and move together with the print head with respect to the substrate, the illumination means and the camera being adapted to move behind the print head.
