Antibodies Metadata Attributes

* indicates a required field

Attribute Type Description
channel_id The identifier of the imaging channel as recorded by the acquisition system. This identifier typically refers to a specific biological structure or marker imaged (e.g., nucleus, cell membrane) and should exactly match the channel ID present in the metadata of the OME-TIFF file. For instance, if the channel ID in an OME TIFF is “Channel:0:13”, this exact value should be entered here. Example: Channel:0:13
hgnc_symbol * Gene symbol approved by HGNC (https://www.genenames.org/) for target gene. Example: ID2B
antibody_rrid * The RRID is a unique antibody identifier that comes from the Antibody Registry (https://antibodyregistry.org). If needed, more info available here: https://www.antibodyregistry.org/faq. Example: AB_10002075
uniprot_accession_number * A unique identifier for the target protein in the UniProt database (https://www.uniprot.org). Example: Q9NNX6
lot_number The lot number is specific to the vendor. Example: Abcam lot number is GR3238979-1
dilution_factor Dillution factor is a whole number. Ratio of stock antibody in the experimental solution, with numerator of 1 assumed. e.g. for a 1:200 (1/200) dilution, the dilution factor would be 200.
antibody_concentration_value The concentration value of the antibody preparation. Leave blank if not applicable.
antibody_concentration_unit The unit of measurement for the antibody concentration value. If the concentration is not applicable, this field may be left blank. Example: ug/ml
conjugated_cat_number An antibody may be conjugated to a fluorescent tag or a metal tag for detection. Conjugated antibodies may be purchased from commercial providers. Leave blank if not applicable.
conjugated_tag  
metadata_schema_id * The unique string identifier for the metadata specification version, which is easily interpretable by computers for purposes of data validation and processing. Example: 22bc762a-5020-419d-b170-24253ed9e8d9
