Analysis protocol for fast data extraction and reduction

Fast and versatile data extraction is performed through automated protocols. A protocol is applied to all parameters of all loaded files. It consists of a sequence of data extraction tasks, such as:

• minimum, maximum, time of minimum /maximum
• maximum derivative, average, area under the curve

Each instruction task is applied to a full treatment period, or at defined subintervals.  For example: within the "control" period, extract the average value between minutes 3 and 4 after period start; or, produce a report of average values computed every 5 minutes from a 2 minute "wide" interval.

Further calculations on extracted data

• define reference values and express any subsequent result as a % of reference
• EC₅₀ regression mode, linear or nonlinear, is user definable
