9. Export and Print Options
There are several export and print options available on the CellDrop. Data export options are accessed
using the export icon in the blue action bar. The screen capture option is accessed from the overflow
menu. Options include:
• Screen Captures
• Data Export for results and protocol settings, images, and histograms
Note: To open an exported .csv file on a computer, the DeNovix instrument and the computer must
both be set to use either period or comma number formats. The CellDrop number format is
determined by the language selected using the Settings app.
Screen Capture
The screen capture feature accessed via the overflow menu and is used to export a .png file. Screen
capture is available for most EasyApps screens.
Export
Tapping the Export icon will bring up a series of two dialog boxes. The first dialog is used to select the
desired combination of results, images and histograms to include in the export. The second dialog is
used to select the export destination.
Export Selections
• Results and Protocol Settings - The calculated results and protocol settings may be exported
either as .csv, .pdf, or .png files.
o . csv: The results and protocol settings will be presented in a format that can be opened in
Excel or uploaded to a LIMS system. Additional sample related information not displayed
in the Results tab Single Sample view is included when exporting in a .csv format.
o .pdf: The results and protocol settings will be presented in a table format. The results table
will include only the fields included on the Results tab Single Sample View.
o .png: The selected images will be exported as .png files.
• When results are not included in the export selection, images and histograms will be exported
as .png files.
• Images: Both raw and annotated (showing the counted cells) may be exported. When the
results and protocol settings are exported in the .pdf format, the images will be included in the
.pdf document. When the results and settings are exported in the .csv format, the images will
be exported as .png files.
• Histograms: The cell size distribution and/or the cell cluster histogram may be selected for
export. When included with results and setting tables, they will be included in a .pdf file. When
selected alone or in combination with images only, histograms will be exported as .png files.
o Note: When exporting histograms for multiple samples using the Export function, the
graphs will be single sample cell distribution or single sample cell cluster graphs. To
export histograms with multiple samples overlaid as is available on the Results Tab Graph
screen, use the Overflow menu Screen Capture option.
Export Destinations
• Export destinations include: USB, Email and Network Printer. See the Settings app section for
Email set up.
