AgilentMicroarray (.txt)
- Import fully supports the Agilent microarray format.
Background & Context

-
- Agilent microarray data format.
- File format used for the storage and exchange of microarray data and meta-information.
- ASCII format.
- Output format of Agilent Feature Extraction and Agilent Genomic Workbench (AGW) software.
- Contains three sub-tables, storing the Feature Extraction parameters, microarray-level statistics, and feature-level data.
Import

- Import["file","AgilentMicroarray"] imports data from any Agilent microarray file.
- Import["file",{"AgilentMicroarray",elem}] imports the specified element.
- Import["file",{"AgilentMicroarray",{elem1,elem2,…}}] imports multiple elements.
- Import["file",{"AgilentMicroarray",elem,subelem}] imports the specified subelement.
- Import["file",{"AgilentMicroarray",elem,{subelem1,subelem2,…}}] imports multiple subelements.
- See the reference pages for full general information on Import.
- ImportString supports the Agilent microarray file format.
Import Elements

- General Import elements:
-
"Elements" list of elements and options available in this file "Rules" full list of rules for each element and option - Common data representation element:
-
"FeatureTable" raw feature table "LabeledFeatureTable" feature table as a list of rules - Meta-information element:
-
"Header" Feature Extraction parameters given as a list of rules - Array-wide statistics element:
-
"Statistics" array-wide statistics given as a list of rules - Use Import["file",{"AgilentMicroarray",elem,"Elements"}] to list the subelements available in each of the three main tables ("LabeledFeatureTable", "Header", "Statistics").
- Import uses the "FeatureTable" element by default.
