到目前为止，组装任何Affytron微阵列的所有探针集的全面注释信息仍然是一项耗时，易错和具有挑战性的任务。ChipInfo旨在从NetAffx和Gene Ontology等在线数据库中检索注释信息，并将这些信息组织成易于解释的表格格式输出。作为dChip和GoSurfer的配套软件，ChipInfo使用户能够独立更新这些软件包的信息资源文件。它还具有计算探针集和基因本体术语的相关汇总统计的功能。ChipInfo的网址是http://biosun1.harvard.edu/complab/chipinfo/。
To date, assembling comprehensive annotation information for all probe sets of any Affymetrix microarrays remains a time-consuming, error-prone and challenging task. ChipInfo is designed for retrieving annotation information from online databases such as NetAffx and Gene Ontology and organizing such information into easily interpretable tabular format outputs. As companion software to dChip and GoSurfer, ChipInfo enables users to independently update the information resource files of these software packages. It also has functions for computing related summary statistics of probe sets and Gene Ontology terms. ChipInfo is available at http://biosun1.harvard.edu/complab/chipinfo/.
