NASC Affywatch
The NASC Affymetrix GeneChip service was initiated in 2001 via the UK GARNet program. We make all of the GeneChip data processed through our service and donated to us openly available on the web.
PLEASE NOTE: THe Affywatch NASCArrays subscription CD/DVD service has now been superseded by an FTP service. See the NASCArrays page and the FTP site. All experiments can be found in the pub/NASCArrays/Data folder.
What was on the CDs / DVDs ?
All of the gene expression data produced from each experiment, along with full MIAME annotation. Every year to date has had more than 600 GeneChips in total. Specifically you get:
- A series of webpages describing the experiment and experimental conditions
- For each experiment an Excel spreadsheet and a comma separated values file with all of the gene expression data. (one file per GeneChip on AffyWatch I)
- For each GeneChip, a .CEL file and a .RPT file for use with specialist Affymetrix analysis software
I'm looking for a particular experiment - how do I know which year to order
Use one of the NASCArrays search tools to find the experiment and then choose the subscription that covers the date of that experiment.Or click here for a link showing all the experiments in the CDs/ DVDs.
I want all of the years to date on an Ipod / portable hard-drive
Please contact us for prices - this is a service that we would like to offer but we cannot currently judge demand.
