Microarrays are broadly used in the omic investigation and have several areas of applications in biology and medicine, providing a significant amount of data for a single experiment. Different kinds of microarrays are available, identifiable by characteristics such as the type of probes, the surface used as support, and the method used for the target detection. To better deal with microarray datasets, the development of microarray data analysis protocols simple to use as well as able to produce accurate reports, and comprehensible results arise. The object of this paper is to provide a general protocol showing how to choose the best software tool to analyze microarray data, allowing to efficiently figure out genomic/pharmacogenomic biomarkers.
