About This Manual
This manual explains how to use the MasterPlex QT 2.0 software to:
• import results files (*.csv) from the Luminex 100 system
• designate standard, unknown, control, and background wells
• generate standard curves
• compute analyte concentrations
• generate data charts and reports
What’s New in MasterPlex QT 2.0
MasterPlex QT 2.0 offers new features, including the ability to:
• apply a standard from one plate (source plate) to compute the
concentrations in another plate (destination plate)
• view a residual plot for standard curves, specify outliers in a standard curve, or apply weighting to a standard curve
• use unknown samples that are diluted prior to the assay and analysis
• create a virtual plate (a software simulation of a plate) that contains data from more than one actual plate (.csv or .mlx) so that
results across multiple plates can be compared and analyzed
• generate a Dose-Reponse curve and determine the logEC50 value
