Assign Sample
Dilution Factors
Indicate the sample dilution factor so the sample analysis in
quantitative tests is accurate. The system multiplies the result by the
dilution factor for reporting.
Do not use dilution factors for qualitative testing. Only use dilution
factors if instructed to do so in the IVD assay kit manufacturer
instructions for use.
You define the dilution factors on a sample-by-sample, or patient-by-
patient basis. The list displays each sample’s accession number and
dilution factor in relation to its well position.
To assign sample dilution factors:
1. On the File menu, click New Batch. The Open Template dialog
box opens.
2. Select the desired template and click Select. The Luminex
Batch Setup dialog box opens. See Figure 34.
3. Select the item that uses the dilution factor that you are setting.
You cannot change any item that is grayed out or locked into the
command list.
