Hi all,

Description     Accession       LN18_CENTRAL_NERVOUS_SYSTEM              769P_KIDNEY              786O_KIDNEY  ....n

PTPN21  1320_at                  5.063595                                                       P       4.377036             A       4.289519        A     .....n

Detection: the call that indicates whether the transcript is detected (P present), undetected ( A, absent), or at the limit of detection (M, marginal). Ref: http://www.ohsu.edu/xd/research/research-cores/gene-profiling-shared-resource/project-design/array-technology/affymetrix-genechip-arrays.cfm

Thank you very much @tszn1984, so what do you mean by detection ? undetected mean not expressed? Am I right ? but in above example cell line (7860_KIDNEY, gene/probe= PTPN21/1320_at, expression value = 4.289519, and detection = A). how to proceed this data ? should I exclude all undetected samples ?

Thanks
