Analyze
Processed Batch
Data
You can analyze only processed batches. If you acquire or process
batches as a multi-batch, the system lists them separately and they
must be analyzed separately.
All batches within a multi-batch have the multi-batch name listed
under the multi-batch ID name column. This allows you to see the
batches that have been processed as a multi-batch.
‹
To analyze data from processed batches and multi-batches:
1. On the Home tab, click Analysis. The Open Batch dialog box
opens showing only processed batches.
2. Select a batch to analyze and click Select. The system loads the
batch and the Analysis window displays the Standards tab.

Validating or
Invalidating
Standards and
Controls
You can invalidate or validate a standard or control in either of two
ways. In the Analysis window, use the associated buttons on the
bottom of the window, or right-click in the row containing the
standard or control you want to validate or invalidate.
Invalidating standards—You can invalidate or remove a standard if
doing so improves the curve fit. Observe caution when doing so.
Invalidating standards greatly affects the curve fit and subsequently
the sample results. For further instruction on assay standard curves
and the appropriateness of invalidating or removing standards,
contact the assay kit manufacturer.
