Titration of Secondary 6-1-12

actual experiment on 6-6-12

I will repeat the secondary titration experiment. This time I will
compare different concentrations of secondary for their ability to give
signal with sera as compared to no sera. I will compare the number of
spots two fold greater from secondary alone to secondary with sera. I
could also look at p values too.

12 slides will be printed with the whole 3072 library on them.

Here are some figures from Bart and Krupa regarding this topic.

concentration would give the most dynamic range)

Potential layout of experiment

2 slides with tumor sera and 5 nM secondary
2 slides 5 nM secondary only
2 slides with tumor sera and 2.5 nM secondary
2 slides with 2.5 nM secondary only
2 slides with tumor sera and 1 nM secondary
2 slides with 1 nM secondary

Scanning: When I scan I may want to try a variety of gains and laser
powers. Phil also mentioned it could be good to increase laser power and
decrease gain. He mentioned that 80l/20g could be interesting.
I'll probably try a range of laser powers and gains: 50l/50g since I have
done this in the past, 50l/25g since I have done this in the past,
80l/20g, 80l/50g, 80l/100g, 100l/20g, 100l/50g, 100l/100g. I can then see
what looks like it gives a good dynamic range and little noise.
