Sample Groups

A sample group refers to a collection or subset of samples that are grouped together based on shared characteristics or attributes.

Create Sample Group

To create a sample group, filter your samples down into only those you want to be part of your sample group. You can filter your data by clicking the filter icon at the top of each visible column or clicking Filters icon above the table to filter all columns based on metadata attributes. You can also drag and drop columns to reorder them.

For example, to create a sample group of females with AB blood type, filter the Sex and ABO fields.

Note how the sample number at the bottom of the page will change to reflect the number of samples that meet these conditions.

Select all by clicking the check marks on the left-hand side. Now, click to create a sample group off of the filtered attributes. Choose to create a new sample group or add to an existing sample group. Give the sample group a name and click .

You can view all your sample groups by clicking the Sample Groups tab in the top. From here, you can search for sample groups, and customize or filter the columns in your view.
