Biopolymer array reading
First Claim
1. A method of processing biopolymer arrays, comprising:
- (a) reading a different array identifier for each biopolymer array from a tag associated with that array;
(b) reading at least some of the biopolymer arrays and saving results from each read biopolymer array in a memory linked with the read identifier for that array;
(c) receiving different communication addresses and a selection of an array identifier for each communication address;
(d) for at least some of the read biopolymer arrays of step (b), matching the saved results for each array with one of the different communication addresses using the identifier, and transmitting the saved results for those arrays to the matched different communication addresses.

Abstract
A method for processing biopolymer arrays and apparatus and computer program products for executing the method. The method may include reading a different array identifier for each biopolymer array from a tag associated with that array. At least some of the biopolymer arrays are read and results from each read array saved in a memory linked with the read identifier for that array. Different communication addresses and a selection of an array identifier for each, are received. For at least some of the arrays, the saved results for each are matched with one of the different communication addresses using the identifier, and the saved results transmitted for those arrays to the matched different communication addresses. A method of processing data from the reading of biopolymer arrays is also provided.

21. A method of processing data from the reading of biopolymer arrays, comprising:
-
(a) receiving results from reading each array with a linked read array identifier, and saving each read array result in a memory linked to the array identifier; (b) receiving different communications addresses and a selection of an array identifier for each communication address; (c) for at least some of the arrays, matching the saved results for each array with one of the different communication addresses using the identifier, and transmitting the saved results for those arrays to the matched different communication addresses.
