The purpose of our bioinformatics staff is mainly to solve problems such as microarray design
and data analysis by developing an automated approach. Several tools were made for rapid chip design and analysis, in parallel specific algorithms were developed to enhance probes discrimination.
In addition, web interfaces were developed to ease data access and sharing among users:
- a local BLAST database which allows us to customize our database with specific clinical sequences (archiving) and also shorten the searching time.
- a mini LIMS for archiving and managing microarray experiments.

OliCheck is a program designed to test the validity of potential microarray probes
by considering the possibility of cross-hybridization with non-target coding sequences.
This analysis can be performed within a single genome or between several different
strains/organisms.
Software available - with demo input files - for Windows platforms.

This software is dedicated to our high-throughput MLVA method (Multi-Locus VNTR Analysis, see Reference below) which
was developed for the rapid and affordable genotyping of MSSA and MRSA.
This method determines the number of dinucleotide repeats in several genes (currently 10 different targets within a single tube),
and separates them using rapid capillary electrophoresis.
This approach is coupled to this dedicated interface used for peak detection and data analysis (clustering) providing very high strain discrimination, applicable for outbreak analysis (Harbarth et al., Emerg Infect Dis. 2005 Jun;11(6):962-5.) or prolonged follow-up.
