Encountering and Resolving Low Bead Counts
Bio-Plex Manager MP notifies you when a low bead count is detected:
The well with the low bead count displays a warning symbol.
A warning symbol is displayed for the region in the Raw Data table if a low
bead count occurred for that particular analyte.
You can specify that Bio-Plex Manager MP stop the run if it encounters three or
mor
e consecutive wells with low bead count of less than 20. In the Run Settings
dialog box, select “Stop runs with low bead count.” If a low bead count is
encountered, the run is stopped and a dialog box appears with a suggested
solution.
In addition, a warning symbol is displayed in the affected wells in the plate template
and for the applicable analytes in the raw data table.
