     Example data as a LumiBatch object which is a subset of Barnes
     data (Barnes, 2005)

_F_o_r_m_a_t:

     A 'LumiBatch' object

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     The data is from (Barnes, 2005). It used Sentrix HumanRef-8
     Expression BeadChip. Two samples "100US" and "95US:5P" (each has
     two technique replicates) were selected. In order to save space,
     8000 genes were randomly selected. As a result, the example data
     includes 8000 genes, each has 4 measurements. The full data set
     was included in the Bioconductor Experiment data package
     lumiBarnes.

     The entire data set has been built as a lumiBarnes data object and
     can be downloaded from Bioconductor Experiment Data.
