Chip types: HT_HG-U133A & HT_HG-U133B

HT Human Genome U133 Array Plate Set

Early access versions of the HT_HG-U133A chip type were labelled U133AAofAv2(*) and HT_HT-U133A_EA.

Footnote: (*) The evidence for this comes from comparing spatial images of a CEL file with U133AAofAv2 [PNG] in the header with one with HT_HT-U133A [PNG]. Both have the same spatial patterns, i.e. blocks of checkered blocks and control probes, "landing lights", and positive controls spelling out 'GeneChip' and 'HG-U133 AofAv2'.
