Process Description

GenePix Input Engine

The GenePix Input Engine imports and combines your provided files from GenePix into a SAS data set.

What do I need?

Before you can successfully import the raw data into SAS data sets that can be used for analysis in JMP Genomics, you must locate and gather several sources of information:

An Experimental Design File (EDF) that indexes the individual .txt files for the experiment. The EDF is typically a text file or Excel spread sheet and must be created before the data can be imported.
All of the .gpr files containing the raw data, which must be located and copied to a single folder. Each .gpr file corresponds to an individual microarray and contains the hybridization intensities and annotation information for that array.

For detailed information about the files and data sets used or created by JMP Genomics software, see Files and Data Sets.

Output/Results

The output data sets generated by this process are listed in a Results window. Refer to the GenePix Input Engine output documentation for detailed descriptions.
