Assay
Information File
Function of AIFs
The Assay Information File (AIF) contains gene annotation
information for the Micro Fluidic Card and for the assays that you
ordered. The file is delivered in a text format, which can be used by
several Applied Biosystems instruments, including the 7900HT.
Assay information file names take the following form:
AIF_prodNum.txt, where prodNum is the production number of
the Micro Fluidic Card. For example, the assay information file for
the card shown in Figure 1 on page 36 is
AIF_143382.txt.
Fields in an AIF
All assay information files for Micro Fluidic Cards contain the fields
shown in the following table. The information is provided for each
well in the card.
Note: AIFs contain other fields with information that may not apply
to Micro Fluidic Cards. These fields (not included in the table) are
marked N/A.
