Title |
Tarsal conjunctiva, GAR_44 |
Sample type |
RNA |
|
|
Source name |
Swab, tarsal conjunctiva, TF
|
Organism |
Homo sapiens |
Characteristics |
tissue: tarsal conjunctiva gender: Male age (years): 3 ethnicity: Wolof fpc trachoma score: F3/P2/C0 equivalent who simplified trachoma grade: TF roche ct/ng amplicor pcr value: POS ompa copies per swab: 0 disease: trachoma
|
Treatment protocol |
Swabs from the tarsal conjunctiva of participants with clinical signs (test) and without (control) of acute trachoma were collected into RNA preservative (RNAlater, Ambion, Inc).
|
Growth protocol |
N/A
|
Extracted molecule |
total RNA |
Extraction protocol |
Upper tarsal conjunctival swab total RNA was extracted and purified with the RNeasy Micro-kit (Qiagen Ltd, Crawley, UK).
|
Label |
Biotin
|
Label protocol |
cRNA probes were prepared from 100 microg total RNA using two-rounds in vitro transcription with biotin-labeled nucleotides (Affymetrix RNA transcript labelling kits (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA)).
|
|
|
Hybridization protocol |
Biotinylated complementary RNA (cRNA) targets were purified using the Sample Cleanup Module (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) and subsequently 10ug of Fragmented biotinylated cRNA was hybridized, according to the manufacturer’s standard protocols, for 16hrs at 45oC.
|
Scan protocol |
GeneChips were scanned using the Affymetrix confocal laser scanner 3000.

Description |
GAR_44
|
Data processing |
Data was subjected to QC analysis followed by RMA and is provided as RMA-normalised natural-scale data. RMA was performed using function rmasummary in Bioinformatics Toolbox version 3.4, Matlab version R2009b.
