The file is a pre-set qPCR program to run a plate filled with water used to test the basic raw fluorescence signal of AriaMx Optical modules.
File required for Performing a Background Calibration
The GC cycle time should be the time from injection until the GC is ready to run again. This includes the analysis run, cool down, and equilibration. Based on the times you listed, it would be roughly 40 minutes. It may be worth timing to make sure. The…
Hi howard_sanford, my apologies for a slow response, but thank you very much for the help and advice. I was able to get the filter for Cal and CC to work, and I appreciate the discussion of my larger problem. I think I'm probably several (many) steps…
Hello, thank you for your help. I had tried loading different processing methods but I didn't realize the results were not linked to any method. It turns out the result files were read-only and could not be linked to any method. I moved the result files…
The peaks look similar, essentially the same sensitivity. I'd look at the background on your older runs and the background now. It could be that most of the previous background was one, two, a few, ions and they're gone now. Was that small but still noticeable…
That is one failure mode of Platinum Resistance Thermometers. It can happen one degree to the next higher degree. The heater/sensor must be replaced, part number G1099-60107.
