The AVG entry appears immediately after the wells being averaged
or at the end of the list depending on what you select under Sort
(Sequentially or Alphabetically). Follow the IVD kit package insert
instructions for use regarding number of replicates to run for a
particular assay.
If the system fails to determine the results for a replicate due to an
excessive skew of one of the samples, you can invalidate the out of
tolerance value. Use the Invalidate Standard (F4) or Invalidate
Control (F6) buttons at the bottom of the Analysis window. Be
aware that this fixes standards and controls, not patient sample. If
any of the replicate standards and/or controls are invalidated, the
“Avg” results reflects the average of the remaining standard and/or
control replicates.
The system flags the failed sample so you may calculate the replicate
set’s average without including the failed result in the equation.
You can sort the batch samples Sequentially (by the order in which
they are acquired), or Alphabetically (by sample ID). Select the
sorting method in the Sort group box. Follow the IVD kit package
insert instructions for use regarding number of replicates to run for a
particular assay.
