Getting information about samples(.CEL files) from GEO using R

Hello all,

Using the GEOquery library in R I have managed to download 850 samples I am interested in. I used the following code for this:

x <- as.list(scan("fileWithGEOsampleAccesionCodes.txt", what ="" , sep = "" ))

data= lapply(x,getGEOSuppFiles)

I have read the CEL files into an affyBatch using - > r <- ReadAffy(celfile.path = pathToFiles,compress = TRUE)

I want to look which micro-array platform is being for each sample. With micro-array platform I mean --> AffyA , AffyPlus2 , also know as hgu133a ,hgu133plus2 .

How can I do this using the data I already have or using the accessioncodes? Basically I want to know the annotation for each sample (.CEL file) .

Thank you in advance!

micro-array r

If you just have a list of the CEL files, then you should be able to get this via the CDF entry in the CEL header with:

CELFiles
 [1] "SampleFiles//AC31_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"          
 [2] "SampleFiles//AC32+AC33_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"     
 [3] "SampleFiles//AC33+AC32_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"     
 [4] "SampleFiles//AC33+OA23_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"     
 [5] "SampleFiles//AC34_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"          
 [6] "SampleFiles//NL13_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"          
 [7] "SampleFiles//NL14_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"          
 [8] "SampleFiles//NL16_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"          
 [9] "SampleFiles//NL17_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"          
[10] "SampleFiles//NM1_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"           
[11] "SampleFiles//NM2_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"           
[12] "SampleFiles//NM3_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"           
[13] "SampleFiles//NM41_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"

[16] "SampleFiles//NM44_(BovGene-1_0-st).CEL"
