This paper presents a new algorithm that achieves an automated way for applying grid in the cDNA microarray images through the determination of spots position in the cDNA microarray and calculating the mean of every raw and column in the microarray image and the result will be a fast automated system for applying addressing (grid) on the microarray image without any human interaction and this automated system starts from the step that follow the sub microarray image cropping.}, journal = {American Journal of Applied Sciences}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
