Software for Analyzing Multiplexed Data

New software aids advanced statistical analysis of multiplexed data generated on the Luminex 200 liquid array detection system of Luminex Corp. (Austin, TX, USA).

The MasterPlex QT software supports both large scale inter- and intra-plate multiplexed data analysis. Multi-sample charts, three-dimensional (3D) depth charts, and intensity maps aid the visualization and comparison of data. The software allows users to generate weighted four- and five-parameter logistics standard curves, dose-response curves, and residual plots.

The software also supports gene expression analysis of data produced using commercial assays, including QuantiGene Plex kits, automatic outlier detection based on standard deviation within a replicate group, and support for customizable reports. The MasterPlex software was developed by MiraiBio (Alameda, CA, USA), a division of Hitachi Software Engineering America, Ltd. MiraiBio is an authorized software partner of Luminex, and has developed other software products for the analysis of data generated on Luminex 100, 200, and IS multiple assay platforms. The IS system is engineered for in-vitro diagnostic applications in clinical laboratories.

"MiraiBio's relationship with Luminex Corporation, in both instrument distribution and software development context, has proved to be very fruitful for both companies,” said Masakazu Kuji, general manager of MiraiBio.
