Label	Id	Description
Reflection	OBI_0400089	[A Reflection is a sorter manufactured by iCyte. It uses digital signal processing, and can be configured with lasers of the users choice from among these excitation wavelengths: 355, 405,488, 532, 635nm. It accommodates up to 48 traditional PMTs. Options include an acousto-optical tunable filter (AOTF) and 16 channel spectrometer (370 to 730 nm). The various detection components can be uniquely configured across multiple Highly Automated Parallel Sorting (HAPS) modules. The Reflection can be used to analyse, sort, and collect cells.]
optical subsystem	OBI_0400080	[A device or part of a device that deals with the behavior and properties of light and the interaction of light with matter. Commonly optical subsystems consist of an excitation optics and collection optics. The excitation optics of a flow cytometer optical subsystem consist of the laser and lenses that are used to shape and focus the laser beam. The collections optics consist of a collection lens to collect light emitted from the particle laser beam interaction and a system of optical mirrors and filters to route specified wavelengths of the collected light to designated optical detectors. The optical subsystem in a flow cytometer consists of the equipment used to irradiate particles, and collect the light either emitted or scattered by those particles.]
photomultiplier tube	OBI_0400084	[A photomultiplier is a device that is normally in the form of a tube, that uses a photocathode to convert photons into photoelectrons which are then amplified. PMTs are typically used to detect SSC and fluorescent parameters. Cytometers have a PMT for each color they can collect.]
self-organizing map	OBI_0000701	[A self-organizing map (SOM) is an artificial neural network with objective class discovery that uses a neighborhood function to preserve the topological properties of a dataset to produce low-dimensional (typically 2) discretized representation of the training data set. A set of artificial neurons learn to map points in an input space to coordinates in an output space. The input space can have different dimensions and topology from the output space, and the SOM will attempt to preserve these.]
support vector machine	OBI_0000700	[A support vector machine is a data transformation with a class prediction objective based on the construction of a separating hyperplane that maximizes the margin between two data sets of vectors in n-dimensional space.]
radioactive	PATO_0001741	[A radiation quality inhering in bearer by virtue of the bearer's exhibiting or being caused by radioactivity.]
CD4 molecule	PR_000001004	[A protein that is a translation product of the human CD4 gene or a 1:1 ortholog thereof. CD4 is an accessory protein for MHC class-II antigen/T-cell receptor interaction. It is the primary receptor for HIV-1. CD4 has four immunoglobulin-like domains in its extracellular region that share the same structure, but can differ in sequence.]
chi square test	OBI_0200200	[The chi-square test is a data transformation with the objective of statistical hypothesis testing, in which the sampling distribution of the test statistic is a chi-square distribution when the null hypothesis is true, or any in which this is asymptotically true, meaning that the sampling distribution (if the null hypothesis is true) can be made to approximate a chi-square distribution as closely as desired by making the sample size large enough.]
ANOVA	OBI_0200201	[ANOVA or analysis of variance is a data transformation in which a statistical test of whether the means of several groups are all equal.]
T cell tolerance induction	GO_0002517	[A process involving any mechanism for tolerance induction in T cells.]
tolerance induction	GO_0002507	[A process that directly activates any of the steps required for tolerance, a physiologic state in which the immune system does not react destructively against the components of an organism that harbors it or against antigens that are introduced to it.]
B cell tolerance induction	GO_0002514	[A process involving any mechanism for tolerance induction in B cells.]
CD3 subunit with immunoglobulin domain	PR_000001018	[A protein with a core domain composition consisting of an extracellular N-terminal domain that adopts an immunoglobulin fold, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular C-terminal domain with a single copy of the Immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (Pfam:PF02189) (ITAM). It constitutes the invariant subunit of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR). TCR is a surface receptor on T cells responsible for recognizing MHC-restricted antigens and initiating the cellular immune response.]
molecular_function	GO_0003674	[A molecular process that can be carried out by the action of a single macromolecular machine, usually via direct physical interactions with other molecular entities. Function in this sense denotes an action, or activity, that a gene product (or a complex) performs. These actions are described from two distinct but related perspectives: (1) biochemical activity, and (2) role as a component in a larger system/process.]
quality of a substance	PATO_0002198	[A quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of its constitution.]
chromium-51	CHEBI_50076	[A synthetic radioactive isotope of chromium having a half-life of 27.7 days and decaying by electron capture with emission of gamma rays (0.32 MeV); it is used to label red blood cells for measurement of mass or volume, survival time, and sequestration studies, for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal bleeding, and to label platelets to study their survival.]
chromatin	GO_0000785	[The ordered and organized complex of DNA, protein, and sometimes RNA, that forms the chromosome.]
ELISA measuring epitope specific lymphotoxin A production by T cells	OBI_0001288	[An assay of epitope specific lymphotoxin A production by T cells that uses an ELISA.]
cytometric bead array assay measuring epitope specific interleukin-5 production by T cells	OBI_0001289	[An assay of epitope specific interleukin-5 production by T cells that uses a cytometric bead array assay.]
ELISA measuring epitope specific IP-10 production by T cells	OBI_0001281	[An assay of epitope specific IP-10 production by T cells that uses an ELISA.]
