GeneTraffic Software

GeneTraffic is a web-based microarray data analysis and management software developed by Iobion Informatics that allows users to log onto a server, upload their microarray data and perform analysis and project management remotely. GeneTraffic® was made by Iobion® Informatics (now under Stratagene) and can be accessed thorough Internet Explorer 6.0 or greater on Windows XP.

     GeneTraffic DUO. (Maintenance complete Dec. 17,2009)

For two-colour/CDMC array users, GeneTraffic supports quantified microarray data files from GenePix, Imagene, ScanArray, QuantArray, ScanAlyze, Scanalytics, Lucidea Automated Spotfinder and ArrayVision as well as native scanned 16-bit TIFF files.

     GeneTraffic UNO

For Affymetrix users, GeneTraffic requires CEL and CHP files. EXP, RPT, DAT, DCP files are optional and not required. For additional details on Duo or Uno features please review GeneTraffic® Duo or Uno manual respectively.


NOTE:

For CDMC array users, in addition to the two 16-bit TIFF image files and image quantification file (e.g., QuantArray or GAL) associated with each scanned microarray, you will also need:

a.       An array layout file (e.g., Quant Array or Gene Pix Pro (.gal) file) for the specific array you are using (e.g., D12Kv1).

b.      A GeneTraffic layout file for the specific array that you are using.

c.       A Drosophila GeneTraffic annotation file.

The files described above (a-c) are available on our Downloads page.
