Label	Id	Description
Luminex 100	OBI_0400069	[The Luminex 100 is a flow_cytometer_analyser manufactured by Luminex. It is a single laser system (575 nm) with avalanche photodiodes in red and infrared and a single PMT for fluorescence. The flow chamber is a square quartz cuvette.]
epitope specific IL-6 release by T cells	OBI_1110203	[A biological process where T cells produce IL-6 resulting from the recognition of a T cell epitope.]
epitope specific killing by T cells	OBI_1110204	[A biological process where T cells lyse antigen presenting cells resulting from the recognition of a T cell epitope on MHC molecules of the antigen presenting cell.]
T cell mediated cytotoxicity	GO_0001913	[The directed killing of a target cell by a T cell through the release of granules containing cytotoxic mediators or through the engagement of death receptors.]
long pass filter	OBI_0400067	[A long pass filter is an optical filter that passes high wavelengths of light but attenuates (or reduces) wavelengths lower than the cutoff frequency. A long pass filter with a cutoff of 500 nm would pass all wavelengths greater than 500 nm.]
LSR2	OBI_0400068	[A LSR2 is a sorter manufactured by Becton Dickinson. It features digital electronics, a solid state 488 nm blue laser and optionally can also have any combination of solid state UV (355 nm) and violet (405 nm) lasers and the a HeNe (633 nm) ion laser. The LSR2 has the filters and PMTs to work with 13 fluorescent parameters. The LSR II is one of the most common sorters in use.]
jet_in_air_flow_chamber	OBI_0400061	[A flow cell in which the cells are pinched off as droplets and allowed to drop through the air. The laser intersects with the cell in mid-air. A jet in air flow chamber allows the laser to intersect with the cells without any intermittent media other than air.]
krypton ion laser	OBI_0400062	[A krypton-ion laser is an ion laser that uses krypton as the lasing medium. These lasers can emit at 468, 476, 482, 520, 531, 568, 647 (the most powerful line), and 676 nm all at once. They have much lower gain than argon lasers however.]
gas laser	OBI_0400047	[A gas laser is a laser in which the lasing medium is a gas. The laser medium is places between two parallel mirrors for light emission amplification. The gas is excited to emit light via an external light source or an electric current discharging through the gas.]
paired-end library	OBI_0000722	[is a collection of short paired tags from the two ends of DNA fragments are extracted and covalently linked as ditag constructs]
glucose tolerance test	OBI_0000721	[An assay that measures glucose clearance from blood over time by repeated glucose measurement in blood serum or plasma after the administration of a glucose bolus in-vivo. This assay can be used to evaluate the severity of insulin resistance or the efficiency of glucose clearance.]
immunologic adjuvant role	OBI_0000720	[The role a material entity plays when it is co-administered with an immunogen in order to enhance the immune response to the immunogen.]
adjuvant role	OBI_1110092	[Adjuvant role is a role that inheres in a material entity and which is realized through a process of modifying a biological response.]
cloning plasmid	OBI_0000729	[A cloning plasmid is a plasmid that was engineered to contain a bacterial origin of replication, encodes for a selectable gene product and contains a cloning site.]
FACS Canto2	OBI_0400038	[A FACS_Canto2 is a flow_cytometer_analyser manufactured by BD. It features digital electronics, two solid state lasers at 488 and 633 nm with the option for a third 405 nm laser, and filters and collectors for measuring up to 8 fluorescent paramters with either the 2 or 3 laser option. The FACS_Canto2 is an analyser usually used in clinical applications.]
rodent care	OBI_0000728	[rodent care is the process by which rodents are being provided with a controlled living environment while kept in captivity for the purpose of research.]
FACS Scan	OBI_0400039	[A FACS_Scan is a flow_cytometer_analyser manufactured by Becton Dickinson. IT features analog electronics, one 488 nm solid state laser, and the filters and PMTs to collect up to three fluorescent parameters The FACS_Scan is usually used for research applications.]
k-nearest neighbors	OBI_0000727	[A k-nearest neighbors is a data transformation which achieves a class discovery or partitioning objective, in which an input data object with vector y is assigned to a class label based upon the k closest training data set points to y; where k is the largest value that class label is assigned.]
peak matching	OBI_0000726	[Peak matching is a data transformation performed on a dataset of a graph of ordered data points (e.g. a spectrum) with the objective of pattern matching local maxima above a noise threshold]
Solexa sequencing assay	OBI_0000724	[A DNA sequencing by synthesis assay that identifies sequence information using DNA polymerase and reversible terminator, requiring immobilization of genomic DNA fragments onto a surface and a specific clonal amplification step known as bridge PCR. Reliance on a reversible terminator allows cycles of DNA chain extension by DNA polymerase and imaging without the need of electrophoretic separation of newly synthesized DNA fragment as with Sanger sequencing.]
