Terms and Concepts: Experiment
An Experiment is a logical collection of one or many Arrays and Datasets. Normally an Experiment is related to a microarray experiment performed in the lab. Descriptions can also be added to an Experiment. EMMA uses Experiments only for the pupose of grouping other things. If you want to perform analyses of your data, only data comming from the same (EMMA)-Experiment can be analyzed. Nevertheless arrays can be reused, which means, that an Array that is in one Experiment can also added to another Experiment.
Note: Often a single microarray hybridization is also called an 'experiment', but this does not reflect that you normally will use many arrays to invetigate a single biological question.
