    Abstract: Methods and system for efficient collection and storage of experimental data. These methods and system allow experimental data from high-throughput, feature-rich data collection systems, such as high-throughput cell data collection systems to be efficiently collected, stored, managed and displayed. The methods and system can be used, for example, for storing managing and displaying cell image data and cell feature data collected from microplates including multiple wells and a variety of bio-chips in which an experimental compound has been applied to a population of cells. The methods and system provide a flexible and scalable repository of experimental data including multiple databases at multiple locations including pass-through databases that can be easily managed and allows cell data to be analyzed, manipulated and archived. The methods and system may improve the identification, selection, validation and screening of new drug compounds that have been applied to populations of cells. The methods and system can also be used to provide new bioinformatic techniques to manipulate experimental data including multiple digital photographic images.

    Abstract: A slide holder assembly and method for use in high content screening of a comet assay. The slide holder assembly has an inside surface and is configured to receive a slide holding a plurality of biological cells on a top surface thereof. When the slide is secured within the slide holder assembly, the inside surface of the slide holder assembly and the top surface of the slide combine to form a cavity having an open top end. The cavity is watertight and configured to hold a liquid therein. A method of performing a comet assay using a slide disposed within a slide holder assembly. The method includes performing encapsulation, lysis, electrophoresis, staining, and imaging of cells on the slide while the slide remains secured within the slide holder assembly.

    Abstract: A method of predicting whether a compound is a skin sensitizer using an in vitro approach. The method includes a step of imaging immune effector cells positioned within a plurality of containers to obtain imaged cellular targets, each container being treated with a different concentration of a compound. The method further includes a step of quantitatively measuring the imaged cellular targets over a range of concentrations of the compound to detect changes in multiple cellular targets of the immune effector cells associated with skin sensitivity. The method further includes a step of analyzing measurements obtained from the measured imaged cellular targets over the range of concentrations of the compound to determine whether the compound is a skin sensitizer.
