To quantify spot abundance, each spot value is compared as a function of the internal standard, i.e, the ratio value of a spot pair. This is referred to as the standardized abundance and this process occurs within the DIA module of DeCyder™ Differential Analysis Software. Within DeCyder BVA module, spot maps from different gels are analyzed. The log10 of the standardized abundance, referred to as the standardized log abundance, is used to aid scaling and ensures that the data set is normally distributed, a prerequisite for the statistical analysis.
