Abstract

The proportional amplification of nucleic acids can increase the amount of nucleic acids while preserving the relative abundance of the individual nucleic acid species, or portions thereof, in the original sample. A proportionally amplified nucleic acid preparation may be analyzed in a gene expression monitoring system, preferably involving a nucleic acid probe array.
