Project description:Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) were treated with CuSO4 or lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an immune-system stimulant. Controls were treated with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Fish were sampled after 6 hours or 24 hours. Hepatic RNA from each treatment group was combined into pools, reverse transcribed to cDNA and labeled with Cy3-dCTP or Cy5-dCTP. Hybridisations consisted of a labeled pooled sample versus a reference mixture made from all PBS-treated samples. The microarray used was made from amplicons of European flounder (Platichthys flesus) hepatic cDNA.
