Format

A matrix with 54 rows and 7 columns

rows [1:54] "Array1" "Array2" "Array3" "Array4" ...

columns [1:7] "Time" "Replicates" "Control" "Placebo" "Low" "Medium" "High"

Details

Arrays are given in rows and experiment descriptors are given in columns. Row names contain array names.

"Time" indicates the values that variable Time takes in each hybridization.

"Replicates" is an index indicating replicate hyridizations, i.e. hybridizations are numbered, giving replicates the same number.

"Control", "Placebo", "Low", "Medium" and "High" columns indicate array assigment to experimental groups, coding with 1 and 0 whether each array belongs to that group or not.
