Such a tool is able to load the digital input images, select and smartly detect the region of interest for fluorescence, elaborate the data input, calculate the average fluorescence values and finally, plot the fitted curve as output, giving also, for each well, both the Cycle Threshold (CT) and Slope parameters.
To further ensure privacy, researchers must also elaborate the data in ISTAT's laboratories, without ever taking possession of the data source.
Additionally, references to external databases are offered to elaborate the data in the database.
For rice, we elaborated the microarray data from Jain et al. (2007) (http://www.plexdb.org/modules/PD_browse/experiment_browser.php?experiment=OS5).
