The [ISA metadata framework](https://isa-specs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/isamodel.html) requires the description (metadata) of different types of samples, namely Study Sources, Study Samples and Assay Samples.

If the assay is the last one in the assay stream, it can be removed without affecting the structure of the stream. If it is a midway assay (i.e., not the last assay in the assay stream), the system will automatically update the sample linkage. The input sample of the following assay will always link to the output sample of the preceding assay without requiring manual intervention. To remove, select the assay and click “Actions -> Delete ISA Assay” in the top right corner.

## Assay Stream

An Assay Stream constitutes a structured sequence of sequential assays, interconnected through the flow of samples. Within an Assay Stream, the sample output of one assay serves as the input for the subsequent one. Each Assay Stream aligns with a single Assay in the ISA metadata framework. It is typically associated with one specific technology or technique, such as Metabolomics or Sequencing.
