Hi, Suppose that I have two sets of arrays, both of which use the same platform. My question is, if I have datasets which have been preprocessed, what's the best way for me to normalize them. Currently I just scale them sample-wise; but not sure of it. Otherwise, should I go back to .CEL file? But how to proceed from there? Thanks, -- Weiwei Shi, Ph.D Research Scientist GeneGO, Inc.

You may need to use an ANOVA or linear model to deal with confounding variables. Quality control is especially important. Sean

Ok, if I understand correctly, I should combine two sources of data and run RMA on it?

Yes, you could do that. What Sean is alluding to, is the fact that there is usually a large between-lab variation. Some times this variation is greater than the biological variation. If you are downloading from a website (or for that matter anyway) you should do proper QC of the chips, because you will have little idea of what the original people did with it and whether they made good choices. In principle, if the hybes are good and you use proper normalization, hopefully you will get results that are comparable from lab to lab. But this is not at all given, and you need to be careful when you do these things.

Then does it mean between-lab variation and between-sample (in one lab) variation could be treated w/o knowing that? I feel there might be more than that.
