We encourage researchers to contact us several days in advance of sample submission to allow us lead time to purchase any specialized Affymetrix arrays. While we keep a few arrays in stock, most arrays are ordered on an as needed basis. A list of some of the available arrays and their prices can be found [[Media:Affy_Arrays_081218.pdf| in this file]]. Information about Affymetrix arrays is available at http://www.affymetrix.com/products_services/index.affx
