Tracking Down Infectious Diseases: Intelligent Software Helps in the Assessment of Cytometric Multiplex Assays

摘要

Cytometric assays enable the simultaneous analysis of a large number of proteins with a single test. This results in complex data, which has to be evaluated in several manual stages. Specialised software tailored to the particular requirements of multiplex assays simplifies the examination of complex questions. M-Plex-Analyzer provides an intuitive and easy-to-use method for the examination of complex biological processes. In particular, the combination of tested bio-chemical kits with a software, which is tailored to the assay, is definitely a visionary concept. Researchers' questions are becoming increasingly complex, so that standard software has also become increasingly complex over the past years. However, for many users such workbench applications are now very difficult to handle. Even in the field of research, the trend will be towards the increasing use of specialised tools, including software, to make work easier for researchers.
