Hello, In BASE1 you can see which sample is channel 1 or channel 2 from the BioAssaySample table.
I've been looking at the BASE2 code and it seems that there is no inherent order for the LabeledExtracts which are associated with a hyb. The Hybridization view page in the GUI lists them in ascending alphabetical name order. The GUI for adding labeled extracts to a new hyb uses what looks like an "unordered list". I don't see a column relevant to channel number in the database schema or anything in the API. So I wonder how we will be able to determine from the BASE2 API which sample is "experimental" and which is the control? As a user I would want to see this on the hybridisation view page, I think. Say I'm looking at some intensities in the Experiment Explorer - (labelled "Ch1" and "Ch2") - if I click through bioassay, raw bioassay and scan to hyb, I land on a page which tells me I have two labelled extracts and their labels. But to know which l.extract is giving the "Ch1" intensity I need to go and see which file format was used (straight or dye swapped) to import the raw data. But wait... that doesn't seem to be available in BASE2. Not even a link to the import job. One would have to annotate all raw bioassays with a "dye swap" annotation to make sure this information was not lost. I'm confused - have I missed something? cheers, Bob. -- Bob MacCallum | VectorBase Developer | Kafatos/Christophides Groups | Division of Cell and Molecular Biology | Imperial College London | Phone +442075941945 | Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
