Description
Custom text Text to display for the custom text attribute fields.
File location The file location in the file name convention is used only if no results group is
specified for a well.
The Results Group file location overrides the File Name Convention file
location.
Results Group library
A Results Group is used to name, sort, and customize the folders in which sample
data les are stored. It is an optional component in a plate.
Note: The le location specied in a results group overrides the le location in the le
name convention specied for a well.
When you set up a plate for a run, you can optionally add results groups to wells in
the plate. If you add this item from the library, a copy of the item is added to the plate,
and can be modied independently from the original item stored in the library. For
information on how changes are tracked if auditing is enabled, see “Audit action“ on
page 205.
To accurately genotype samples, the GeneMapper
™
ID-X Software requires at least
one allelic ladder sample per run folder. (Multiple allelic ladder samples in a single
run folder can also be used for analysis.)
We recommend that you run one allelic ladder for a set of 24 samples:
• 8-capillary instruments—One allelic ladder per 3 injections
• 24-capillary instruments—One allelic ladder per 1 injection
Note: Run HID validation studies to determine the required number of allelic ladders
for your application.
See “Results Group example 3: store one allelic ladder per run folder (8-capillary
instruments)“ on page 160 for a results group example that places three injections in
each run folder for 8-capillary instruments.
