Dendrogram Service

A dendrogram (from Greek dendro "tree" and gramma "drawing") is a tree diagram widely used to illustrate the arrangement of the clusters produced by hierarchical clustering. The hierarchical clustering algorithms begin with each object in individual clusters. At every step, the two clusters that are most similar are joined into a single new cluster. Once fused, objects are never separated. Dendrograms are often used in computational biology to illustrate the clustering of genes, proteins, metabolites or samples.

Distance Method of hierarchical clustering specifies with Euclidean or Manhattan distance is used. Euclidean distance is used more widely. Euclidean distance may be considered as straight-line distance. Manhattan distance is often referred to as city-block distance since it is analogous to walking along an imaginary sidewalk to get from point A to B.

The followings are the most commonly used methods that represent eight methods of defining the similarity between clusters:

Simple Average (Weighted Pair-Group)
Group Average (Unweighted Pair-Group)
Single Linkage (Nearest Neighbor)
Complete Linkage (Furthest Neighbor)
Flexible Strategy Requires the Distance Method to be Euclidean
Ward’s Minimum Variance Requires the Distance Method to be Euclidean
Median (Weighted Pair-Group Centroid) Requires the Distance Method to be Euclidean
Centroid (Unweighted Pair-Group Centroid) Requires the Distance Method to be Euclidean

Dendrogram Service

The horizontal axis of the above dendrogram represents the distance or dissimilarity between different clusters. The vertical axis represents the clusters and objects. The main interest of researchers is in similarity and clustering. Each joining of two clusters is represented on this graph by splitting a horizontal line into two horizontal lines. The horizontal position of the split that was shown by the short vertical bar gives the distance (dissimilarity) between the two clusters.

From Our Clients

"I recently used their proteomics service for a project analyzing protein interactions in yeast models. The team was very responsive and helped clarify the methodology they employed, which made me feel confident in the results. The data quality was solid, with clear identification of several key proteins involved in our study. Their thorough analysis enabled me to pinpoint specific interactions that I hadn't considered before, which significantly improved the direction of my research. I appreciate their professionalism and support throughout the process."

Sarah Thompson, University of California, Berkeley

"Our lab collaborated with them on a project studying cancer biomarkers. The proteomics analysis provided was detailed and focused, specifically highlighting the differential expression of proteins between healthy and tumor samples. Their clear explanations of the data helped my team understand the biological implications. I also appreciated their willingness to revise the reports based on our feedback, ensuring that we had everything we needed for our publication. This collaborative spirit was invaluable."

Emily Rodriguez, Stanford University

"Our lab worked with them on a project studying the effects of diet on gut microbiota using proteomics. They used a label-free quantification method to analyze proteins in fecal samples before and after dietary intervention. The results showed significant changes in protein expression linked to microbial activity. This was pivotal for our hypothesis about diet-microbiota interactions. The clarity of their data presentation made it easy for our team to integrate these findings into our ongoing research."

Dr. Lisa Wong, University of Toronto

"My experience with Creative Proteomics during the mass spectrometry analysis was excellent. We sent in human saliva and mouse brain tissue samples, which they expertly analyzed using both LC-MS and GC-MS techniques. The results were invaluable, revealing key metabolites in the saliva and identifying biomarkers linked to brain function in the brain tissue."

Dr. Emily Carter, Senior Research Scientist

"The overall service from Creative Proteomics was outstanding. They made the entire process seamless and efficient, allowing us to focus on our research. We worked with leaf and root samples from various Arabidopsis genotypes for targeted metabolomics analysis. Their thorough profiling of primary and secondary metabolites gave us important insights into how the plants respond metabolically to environmental stress."

Dr. Laura Henderson, Plant Physiologist

"We had a pleasant collaboration with Creative Proteomics on mass spectrometry analysis of lipids. They conducted a detailed analysis of lipid species, providing us with important insights into lipid metabolism and its relationship with metabolic syndrome disease states."

Dr. Sarah Mitchell, Research Scientist
