1. A miniaturized DNA microarray assembly, consisting of:
a) a single high-density array of oligonucleotide probes printed on a single solid substrate, wherein the dimensions of the solid substrate are about 14.0 mm by about 8 mm, or less;
b) an inert enclosure surrounding sides and bottom of the single solid substrate, wherein the enclosure has a fluid inlet port and a fluid outlet/exit port which allows fluid to flow over and contact the oligonucleotide probes of the array; and
c) an optically transparent top surface sealed to the enclosure.
