Apex
After locating a start point, the peak find algorithm looks for the first
negative slope value and saves the previous point as the apex. If
the value of the apex is less than the minimum peak height limit, the
algorithm starts looking for a new peak.
Assay File
File created by the LabChip GX software to specify assay and
analysis settings, such as Ladder and marker sizes and
concentrations, peak find settings, expected peaks, and excluded
peaks.
