Hi all, I was looking at some exon arrays and a lot of the CEL file images have blobs/smears I was wonder if we have to repeat the experiment or if there were tools in bioconductor that could possibly correct these kind of errors. Thanking you in advance Cheers Yogi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Check out the harshlight package. I've been meaning to look into it more myself, but I believe it tries to deal with the issues you mention. R Package: http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.2/bioc/html/Harshlight.html Publication: http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/6/294 Hope that helps. -steve

There's also MblobR. reference: Song, J. S.; Maghsoudi, K.; Li, W.; Fox, E.; Quackenbush, J. & Liu, X. S. Microarray blob-defect removal improves array analysis.

After downloading all the dependency jars[1], I realized that it only opens CEL files saved as version 4 (the binary one), while the files I have are version 3[2]. Do you (or anybody else) know if there is an easy way to convert between versions of CEL files?

Use affxparser Kasper On Jul 14, 2008, at 7:42 AM, Steve Lianoglou wrote: > Hi Mark, > > On Jul 13, 2008, at 6:58 PM, Mark Cowley wrote: > >> There's also MblobR. >> reference: >> Song, J.

Hi Steve and Kasper, Using affxparser would keep things in R/Bioconductor, but there is also apt-cel-convert from the Affymetrix Power Tools http://www.affymetrix.com/support/developer/powertools/changelog/index .html cheers, Mark On 15/07/2008, at 4:00 AM, Kasper Daniel Hansen wrote: > Use affxparser > > Kasper > > On Jul 14, 2008, at 7:42 AM, Steve Lianoglou wrote: > >> Hi Mark, >> >> On Jul 13, 2008, at 6:58 PM, Mark Cowley wrote: >> >>> There's also MblobR. >>> reference: >>> Song, J.
