We have solved this by making two different import configurations. This ensures that the sample is always in ch1 and the reference is in ch2 and there is no need to make a special formula to calculate the ratio. The information about dye-swapped or not is still interesting in the downstream analysis steps. In base1 I solved this by "annotating" the bioassays. I just added a prefix (_cy3 or _cy5) to the name. In base2 I would solve this by using the annotation system and annotate the RawBioAssay dye-swap true or false. To make the annotating a little easier we have added a ticket (http://base.thep.lu.se/ticket/828 ) that will enable the user to automatically annotate the RawBioAssay depending on what configuration used to import the data. /Johan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
