Figure 3

Box plots of raw probe cell and normalized probe set signal intensities. All box plots were generated with Affymetrix Expression Console. A. Probe cell intensity box plot generated from CEL file probe cell intensity values for all targets; B. Box plot of globally scaled, MAS 5.0 summarized probe set signals for all targets. C. Box plot of RMA summarized probe set signals for Method 1 targets; D. Box plot of RMA summarized probe set signals for Method 2 targets; E. Box plot of RMA summarized probe set signals for Method 3 targets; F. Box plot of RMA summarized probe set signals for Method 4 targets. Donor source is indicated on the X-axis: red text indicates RNA isolation from PAXGene tubes on the day of collection, blue text indicates RNA isolation from PAXGene tube following freezing.
