Wiki Markup
This standard (ISA-TAB-Nano) specifies the format for representing and sharing information about nanomaterials, small molecules and biological specimens along with their assay characterization data (including metadata, and summary data) using  spreadsheet or TAB-delimited files \[1\].

Prerequisites

Familiarity with the fields of nanotechnology and nanomedicine is a pre-requisite for this specification.  An understanding of ISA-TAB is recommended but not required as the ISA-TAB-Nano specification provides descriptive information on ISA-TAB as applied to nanotechnology.

Wiki Markup
Once theISA-TAB-Nano files have been created, the files can be validated and submitted into nanotechnology resources that support the ISA-TAB-Nano specification.  It is anticipated that validation of the files may occur via a validation service that leverages a modified version of the ISA-TAB validator \[[http://isatab.sourceforge.net/validator.html]\].  It is also anticipated that nanotechnology resources like caNanoLab ([https://cananolab.nci.nih.gov/caNanoLab/]), the Nanomaterial-Biological Interactions (NBI) knowledgebase ([http://nbi.oregonstate.edu/]), and other resources will provide facilities for importing/exporting ISA-TAB-Nano files as the ISA-TAB-Nano specification evolves.
