6.3 DataMerger
DataMerger program was especially conceived for the analysis of data selected with DataMining
and for combining experiments acquired in different session. Typically, experiments obtained on
day one might need to be compared with experiments from day two or analyzed simultaneously.
DataMerger allows analysis of single point measurements, multiple measurements, concentration
activation or inhibition curves, or voltage-dependent channel activity. Examples below are
illustrating the power of DataMerger for the data analysis and preparation of table and / or
data summary.
In the concentration activation curve illustrated in the DataMining example, curves were saved as
ACh.mat. These data can be read into DataMerger using the command Open in “File” menu and
choosing the file ACh.mat. The following window will appear.
Note that each concentration activation curve is represented by a corresponding graph. Curves
can then be traced either in isolation by a single click on the lower left corner of the graph or
individual traces can be retrieved by CTRL (right click). Activation of this command browse the
data file and retrieves the corresponding curve allowing constant visualization of the data quality.
Concentration activation curves can be traced one by one, by selecting each graph,
or all together by the option Plot All that will display the ensemble of curves.
