#### Interactive Visualisation of Calibration Plot
|
|
|
1. Pick the point of interest in the calibration plot window to see fluctuation and correlation data from respective FCS points.
|
|
|
2. Check the statistics parameters and level of bleaching at the headings of plots.

#### Output files
|
|
|
> All outputs are saved in the main directory.
|
|
|
1. **info.csv**
|
|
|
info.csv is generated inside the main user input. This is the main output with all final and intermediate parameters. info.csv includes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* the names of directories and files with fcs data
|
|
|
* path to the main directory
|
|
|
* calibration plot parameters and its errors
|
|
|
* k - parameter that shows the intersection rate of intensity ranges of POI and FP.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
2. **calibration.csv**
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here you can find the concentrations of POI calculated using calibration plot. Check the k-value in the info.csv after execution. k > 1 leads to less confidence in the determination of POI concentration.
