FCS 4.0 – The Analytical Cytometry Standard, By John Quinn Ph.D.
Work is underway in developing the next flow cytometry standard file format. The working name for this file won’t be FCS 4.0, but the Analytical Cytometry Standard, or ACS. The shift in naming convention is meant to convey a major shift in the format of data storage. Previous versions of fcs incorporated all of the data and metadata into a single file with an FCS header. ACS will actually be a container file that will house a number of sub-files of different formats each selected to house a particular portion of the data. Lets begin with an illustration of the proposed format.

Scientists Launch First Comprehensive Database of Human Oral Microbiome |
|
Monday, 31 March 2008 |
|
Scientists know more today than ever before about the microbes
that inhabit our mouths. They know so much, in fact, that gathering
all of the relevant bits of information into one place when designing
experiments can be a labor-intensive job in itself. Now, grantees
of the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR),
part of the National Institutes of Health, and their international
colleagues intend to solve this problem with the launch of the
first comprehensive database of the oral microbiome, or the approximately
600 distinct microorganisms currently known to live in the mouth.
