Assay Standard Information - Displays the selected standard reagents in a list. The list
displays the Reagent, Name, Lot #, Expiration, Manufacturer, and expected concentration
value of each analyte.

OK to apply the lot.
• Apply Values - Applies a value across or down the Reagent,Name, Lot #, Expiration,
and Analyte fields. Type a value in these fields by double-clicking on them, and then using
one of the two Apply Values arrows to apply that value down or across the list of analytes.
NOTE: The Dilution list and Apply Dilution button only appear if a
quantitative analysis has been selected.
• Dilution - Contains the following dilution options:
• 1:2 - Halves the standard from each previous iteration.
• 1:10 (Log) - Computes a value of one-tenth of the standard from each previous iteration.
• 1/2 Log - Creates a 1:3.16 dilution, or half of each 1:10 (Log) from each previous
iteration.
Alternatively, type a number for your own dilution factor.
• Apply Dilution - Applies the dilution selected in the Dilution list.
NOTE: Click a column header to resort the display.
NOTE: Click the Reagent column header to resort the order from the
highest number standard to standard number one. This is useful for
applying dilutions in which the last standard is the highest standard.

Reagent, Name, Lot Number, Expiration, and Manufacturer. Existing control lot
information can be applied or new information can be typed manually.
• Apply Ctrl Lot - Opens the Select Lot dialog box. Select a lot from the list and then click
OK.
• Show Value - Expected, Low, and High set the expected, lowest, or highest acceptable
concentration of the analyte in the sample.
• Apply Values - Applies a value down or across the list of analytes.
