Luminex xPONENT 4.2 for FLEXMAP - Manual (Page 68)

The Current Batch tab has the following features:
• Statistic - To view a particular statistic for analytes in a batch, select one of the options on
the drop-down list. The statistical options displayed change according to the type of
analysis.
• Median (MFI) - The point is a data set where there are as many values occurring above
it as there are below it.
• Net MFI (Median Background) - Net MFI median background.
• Count - Gated events, if gates are set.
• % CV of microspheres - The measure of relative dispersion within the distribution.
%CV = 100 x Std Dev / Mean
• Standard Deviation - For calculating sample variability or dispersion, Luminex uses the
standard deviation formula.
• Peak - The value that is equal to the largest number of data points within the distribution.
For example, in data set {1,2,2,3,3,3,4,5}, 3 is the peak because it occurs the most
frequently in the distribution list.
• Trimmed Count
• Trimmed % CV of Microspheres
• Trimmed Standard Deviation
• Trimmed Peak
* Trimmed statistics remove the lower and upper five percent of the extreme statistic
values, then use the remaining values for the Standard Deviation, or %CV calculations.
The statistics displayed change according to the analysis type selected.
