Table 1 False-change rate for GeneChip and CodeLink microarray platforms. The false-change rate is defined as the percentage of ratios, derived from the population of concordantly 'present' genes, which fall outside 2-fold (i.e. |log2 ratio| > 1). The table above contains the average and standard deviation of the false-change rate, calculated across the 10 pair-wise array combinations within a sample. False-change rate was calculated from signals above noise across the arrays being compared.
