Experiment Design Overview

 

Experiment design involves several steps. Below, we outline the steps and hyperlink to topics in this help file that explain how to perform each step in detail.

 
  1. Create a project. Set the imaging schedule for the project if you would like all experiments to have the same imaging schedule.
    1. Under the project, create a protein formulation and define its ingredients.
    2. Under the project, create a new screen or experiment.
  2. Use the Canvas to define the contents of the experiment's plates by creating layers and specifying layer parameters on the Layer tab.
  3. Save the experiment. Rock Maker generates the experiment plates and inserts them under the experiment on the explorer.
  4. When you are ready to dispense the experiment plates, right click the experiment or the individual plates on the explorer and select Move to Dispense Queue.
  5. Dispense the plates.
  6. As the plates are imaged according to their imaging schedules, inspect the plate images using the Images view.
