2-12 Applied Biosystems 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System and SDS Enterprise Database User Guide
Lesson 1: Using Plate Documents
About SDS Plate
Documents
Every plate run on the Applied Biosystems 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System
requires the creation of a plate document using the SDS software. A plate document
is a virtual representation of a consumable used to contain samples and reagents
during a sequence detection run. The software uses the plate document to coordinate
the operation of the instrument (thermal cycling and data collection), to organize and
store the data gathered during the PCR, and to analyze the run data.
The exercises in this lesson will familiarize you with the use of plate documents.
