Standard Lanes
Standard samples are placed in the first and last lanes by default. You can specify
other standard lanes by selecting the box below each lane or by entering the
standard lane numbers separated by commas in the MW Analysis Tools dialog box.
In the Lane and Bands view, Std appears below the lanes, identifying them as
standard lanes. In the Molecular Weight Analysis view, these lanes are indicated
with a check mark below the lane.
There are three standard lanes in the screen shot below (lanes 1, 16, and 17).
Standard lanes are identified with a check mark in the boxes below the lane. The
molecular weights of the bands in the standard lanes appear on either side of the
lane frame. The red lines running from one end of the lane frame to the other identify
the location of the bands in the standard lanes. You can use these lines to see where
the bands in the other lanes fall relative to the bands in the standard lanes.
Note: You can use the lane labels to identify your standard lanes.
