“…12,17–20 The fluorescence signal generated by labeling may also be sensitive to perturbations by local field intensity, pH, and temperature, may be subject to bleaching and quenching, and may suffer from false positives due to background binding and/or autofluorescence of compounds. 12,21 Heterogeneity of fluorescent labeling is also a significant challenge, 20,22 presenting particular difficulty in quantifying binding energy and expression levels with confidence and reproducibility in microarray formats. 23 Furthermore, prior knowledge of the target molecule is necessary to incorporate labeling.…”
