In my experience with txt files this is the best way of dealing with it:

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;

public class Cyto {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        ArrayList names = new ArrayList();
        try {

            FileInputStream dis = new FileInputStream("list.txt");
            BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(dis));
            String line;
            while (br.ready()) {
                line = br.readLine();
                String[] row = line.split(Pattern.quote(","));      
                System.out.println(row[1]);
                names.add(row[1]);
            }
            br.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

}

Use

br.ready()

instead of reading directly from stream.
