The development to the eXensible Markup Language (XML) has opened up significant opportunities for storing scientific data.  The Analytical Information Markup Language (AnIML) is an XML based specification for the storage of analytical instrument data that will make data exchange/interchange more uniform from both short-term and long-term (archival) perspectives.This presentation introduces AnIML and discusses the integration of AnIML to the research environment for storage and exchange of analytical data via i) the specification alone, ii) augmenting the specification with a research extension, and iii) embedding the specification in another XML format.  Examples of how the research data can be integrated/searched will also be presented.
