The is a highly sought-after solution for researchers and laboratory professionals operating Bio-Rad’s prominent real-time PCR detection systems . This software serves as the direct operational and data analysis brain for instruments like the CFX96 Touch , CFX384 Touch, and CFX Connect.
Beyond data collection, CFX Maestro 1.1 introduces powerful statistical tools that were previously the domain of third-party software. It enables researchers to perform t-tests and one-way ANOVA within the same environment where the data was generated. The software’s ability to automate multi-plate studies—combining data from hundreds of runs—allows for the identification of subtle gene expression trends that might be lost in smaller datasets. Furthermore, features like the tool aid in experimental validation by identifying the most stable internal controls for a specific assay. Compliance and Security
