BioImageArchive_get_study tool specification

Tool Information:

  • Name: BioImageArchive_get_study

  • Type: BioImageArchiveTool

  • Description: Get detailed information about a specific BioImage Archive study by accession number. Returns comprehensive metadata including title, description, imaging methods, organism, and file information. Example: ‘S-BIAD634’ returns an annotated fluorescence image dataset.

Parameters:

  • accession (string) (required) BioImage Archive study accession number. Format: S-BIAD#### or S-BSST#### or S-EPMC#######. Examples: ‘S-BIAD634’, ‘S-BIAD928’.

Example Usage:

query = {
    "name": "BioImageArchive_get_study",
    "arguments": {
        "accession": "example_value"
    }
}
result = tu.run(query)

BioImageArchive_search_bioimages tool specification

Tool Information:

  • Name: BioImageArchive_search_bioimages

  • Type: BioImageArchiveTool

  • Description: Search the BioImage Archive specifically for biological image datasets (BioImages collection). This targets the BioImages-specific collection at EBI, returning imaging studies with microscopy-specific metadata. Example: ‘cell division’ finds imaging datasets of cell division processes.

Parameters:

  • query (string) (required) Search query for biological imaging data. Examples: ‘cell division’, ‘neuron morphology’, ‘tissue section’, ‘live cell imaging’.

  • page_size ([‘integer’, ‘null’]) (optional) Number of results per page. Default: 10. Max: 100.

Example Usage:

query = {
    "name": "BioImageArchive_search_bioimages",
    "arguments": {
        "query": "example_value"
    }
}
result = tu.run(query)

BioImageArchive_search_studies tool specification

Tool Information:

  • Name: BioImageArchive_search_studies

  • Type: BioImageArchiveTool

  • Description: Search the BioImage Archive (EBI BioStudies) for biological imaging datasets. The BioImage Archive hosts open microscopy, imaging, and visualization data from life sciences research. Search by imaging modality (cryo-EM, fluorescence, confocal), organism, technique, or scientific topic. Returns study accessions, titles, and metadata. Example: ‘fluorescence microscopy cell’ finds fluorescence imaging studies.

Parameters:

  • query (string) (required) Search query - imaging modality, organism, technique, or topic. Examples: ‘cryo-EM’, ‘fluorescence microscopy’, ‘cell segmentation’, ‘brain imaging’, ‘protein localization’.

  • page_size ([‘integer’, ‘null’]) (optional) Number of results per page. Default: 10. Max: 100.

  • page ([‘integer’, ‘null’]) (optional) Page number (1-indexed). Default: 1.

Example Usage:

query = {
    "name": "BioImageArchive_search_studies",
    "arguments": {
        "query": "example_value"
    }
}
result = tu.run(query)
