Abstract
The article focuses on the competition between Affymetrix Inc. and Illumina Inc. in the market for gene chips in the U.S. Gene chips or microarrays, are wafers of silicon, glass or plastic that allow biologists to study when and how genes express themselves. Affymetrix and Illumina are the only two players in the brand new market for high-density genotyping.
