Description
Study of in vitro megakaryocyte differentiation
Data processing
Agilent Feature Extraction software (v.7.2) was used to assess spot quality and extract feature intensity statistics; duplicate spots were averaged; background-subtracted data were normalized using SNNLERM (Yang et al., PNAS 2003; 100:1122-1127)
