Standard Wells
Standard wells are used to generate a standard curve on which data will be interpolated. Expected
concentrations must be defined for each standard group.
Unique IDs must be used to distinguish between the different standard groups. The minimum
number of standard groups that can be defined is 2, and the maximum number is 20. Note: Each
curve fit type has its own required minimum number of standards.
The default ID prefix is STD, and the default IDs are STD1, STD2, STD3, etc. The default color
for all standard wells is dark blue. To change the ID prefix and/or color, click the “…” box to the
right of the ID field.
