Validating or
Invalidating
Standards and
Controls
You can invalidate or validate a standard or control in either of two
ways. In the Analysis window, use the associated buttons on the
bottom of the window, or right-click in the row containing the
standard or control you want to validate or invalidate.
Invalidating standards—You can invalidate or remove a standard if
doing so improves the curve fit. Observe caution when doing so.
Invalidating standards greatly affects the curve fit and subsequently
the sample results. For further instruction on assay standard curves
and the appropriateness of invalidating or removing standards,
contact the assay kit manufacturer.
Invalidating controls—You can invalidate or remove a control in
data analysis. However, Luminex does not recommend invalidating
controls. For further instruction on assay controls and guidelines
regarding accepting or rejecting control values, contact the assay kit
manufacturer.
