Data Sheet
In other fields of engineering, such as electrical engineering, data sheets are a way to document part data such that the behavior of the part is captured and can be shared with other groups. Ideally, the information on these sheets are robust enough to allow any group to use the part in a different context effectively, given the information captured on these data sheets.
Canton et al. 2008 Arkin 2008
Several groups have started developing the ideas that should be on such a data sheet for DNA parts. Canton et. al included information such as performance, reliability and compatibility. Arkin suggested that general device data, cell-cell communication measurements, DNA-binding protein domain measurements and therapeutic measurements could be made in also. A sharing standard is sought, but there is still no standard mechanism for sharing part information amongst synthetic biologists.
Our approach to sharing characterization data through a data sheet is to break information into three major sections: ''Growth/Measurement Conditions'', ''Part Information'' and ''Data Analysis''.
