Figure 6. Key to the controls in the RT2 PCR Array plates. The genomic DNA control (GDC) assay is a sensitive assay that detects
the presence of genomic DNA. The reverse transcription control (RTC) assay detects an artificial RNA template provided with
the RT2 First Strand Kit. The positive PCR controls (PPC) monitor for PCR inhibitors. During data analysis, the online software
monitors ratios between the PPC and RTC to calculate the reverse transcription efficiency. The software also looks at both
variability in a single sample and across samples by monitoring the reproducibility of the RTC and PPC assays.

.png image files Analysis Center. A The volcano plot shows the fold change
and statistical significance of gene expression changes.
Relevent gene expression changes can be ranked by the
p-value allowing researchers to follow-up on highly
consistent fold change values. This becomes very important
when trying to determine if genes with small fold changes
are relevent for future experiments. B The scatter plot
indicated the fold difference of gene expression changes.
Two samples can quickly be compared using this plot.
