Comparison files
You can compare the measurement results from different chip runs (electrophoretic chip
data files of same assay class only) by collecting samples from different chip data files
(.xad) and storing them in a comparison files (.xac). It is then possible to overlay
electropherograms of these samples, for example.
Validation results files
Validation results files (.xvd) contain results of qualification tests regarding the
bioanalyzer hardware and software. The files are stored in the “..\validation” subfolder of
the 2100 expert installation directory. For each validation run, an .xvd file is generated.
Date and time of the validation run are included in the file name. Example:
“Validation_25-09-2003_10-28-40.xvd”.
Diagnostics results files
To ensure proper functioning of the bioanalyzer hardware you should run hardware
diagnostics tests on a regular basis. The results of these hardware tests are stored in
diagnostics results files (.xdy) in the “..\diagnosis” subfolder of the 2100 expert
installation directory.
Result flagging rule files
You can export and import result flagging rules from other assay or chip data files. Result
flagging rules are stored in .xml files.
