Data Sets
The Minimum Data Set (MDS) is the set of data that is asked to describe each product from each collection. Each catalogue field has to be filled in (use a dash - if no information is given).The MDS is required from new collection centres when they join CABRI. The Recommended Data Set: collection centres are also asked to supply data for recommended fields; however, if data are not available, the product is still acceptable
Collection centres are free to provide data for other fields, which are part of the Full Data Set. Here are all the fields that NCCB & DSMZ are using:
| Data Set | Field | Description |
| MDS | Collection number | Contains the number of the element in the collection under which the element is distributed. |
| MDS | Element name | Contains the name of the element. |
| MDS | Element type | Contains the type of the element |
| MDS | Other culture collection numbers | Number given by other collections to the phage |
| MDS | Restricted distribution | should contain:
|
| MDS | Literature | Original publication in which the element is described. |
| MDS | History of deposit | Contains the history of the element from author to depositor. |
| MDS | Host for propagation | Description of suitable host strains (on family, genus, species level), where possible completed with requirements for infection on phenotypic level (e.g. gram-negative bacteria, or E. coli LamB+) |
| MDS | Host used for propagation | Name of the host strain (species and element name/collection number) that was used by the collection for propagation of the phage |
| MDS | Lysogenicity | Lysogenicity o the phage, Logical field: "yes" or "no". |
| MDS | Virus used for | Possible applications of the phage |
| RDS | Cell surface receptor | Name of the cell surface receptor |
| FDS | Medium | Medium |
