The DM upgrade for PG200 and PG220 supports data queries and advanced statistical tools for comparative gel analysis studies in determining differential protein expression. The DM upgrade operates on an Oracle database with a secure login. The extra component allows comparison between large gel set experiments.
Key benefits and features:-
Provides a logical format for storing large quantities of gel image analysis data.
The guided user-interface reduces the need for the operator to have statistical knowledge. Gels and gel sets can be compared for significant differences (parametric and non-parametric tests):
t-test (paired)
F-test (variance ratio test)
Kolmogorov-Smirnov
Dunnett's
Kruskall-Wallis
Principal component analysis
DM upgrade for TL120
Designed for researchers who run a large number of gels allowing extensive data mining for comparative studies. TL120 with DM (not Oracle based) supports Comprehensive Archiving Tools and Extended Query Functions allowing matching of lanes across one or many experiments and can be effectively linked to patient clinical data.
