Norm Ratio
The calculation is a simple division of each sample’s calculated value by the
control sample’s calculated value.
When internal controls are not chosen:
Norm Ratio
(sample)
=
When internal controls are chosen:
Norm Ratio’’
(sample x)
=
Norm Ratio’
When internal controls are chosen and no control samples are identified:
Norm Ratio’
(well)
=
To figure Norm Ratio’ per sample, use the average normalized value of each
sample.
Norm Ratio’
(sample)
=
Norm Ratio’’
Calculating Norm Ratio” allows the researcher to express all data relative to
the control, so that data across experiments using the same control samples
can be compared.
When control sample and housekeeping genes (internal controls) are chosen:
