Sample Projects
Bio-Plex Data Pro comes with two sample projects. Use these sample projects to familiarize yourself with
Bio-Plex Data Pro. The following is a description of these sample projects.
S AMPLE P ROJECT 1
The samples in Sample Project 1 are of individuals who have been diagnosed with various cancers and
whose blood was processed as serum and plasma. The gender of the individuals is known. This project
includes several custom columns:
• Condition — the values are Normal or one of several cancers.
• Matrix — the values are Serum or Plasma.
• Gender — the values are Male or Female.
In the Perform Analysis/Create Charts view, “Compare by” is set to Condition. The Plasma samples are
excluded from analysis by default. You can click “Filter by” and select Matrix to see the list of samples.
The Sample Info section of Bio-Plex Manager is used to track all of the information that is pertinent to
your experiment (in this example, Condition, Matrix, and Gender). When you begin working with your own
projects, you will need to add the data you want to use to perform your analysis.
