Output.CSV
Overview
This chapter describes the file specification for the Luminex IS 2.3
Output.CSV file. Although this document may refer to older versions
of Luminex software for historical purposes, it is intended only to
describe the Output.CSV file for the Luminex IS 2.3 software.
Although this chapter was prepared to ensure accuracy, Luminex
assumes no liability for errors or omissions or for damages resulting
from the application or use of this information. This chapter refers to
the Luminex 100 analyzer, but it can also be used for performing
tasks in the Luminex IS 2.3 software installed for a Luminex 200
analyzer.
The Output.CSV file was created to provide a simple data report.
The file displays general batch information and statistical results.
Note that the term Batch is synonymous with Session in other
versions of Luminex Software.
Overall Design
The Output.CSV file contains two blocks of information. The first is
the header, which contains general batch information. The second
block of information is the results section, which contains several
subsections displaying statistical analyses in a Sample versus Test
format, as illustrated in the following example:
Batch Header

Stat1 Header: Sample Location, Sample Name, Test1, Test2, ...,
TestN, Total Count, Notes

SampleM
