Sigmoid curves are commonly generated in bioassays and used to calculate results. Various techniques have been used to define the curve, analyze the observations, and calculate a concentration. This technology is an algorithmic approach to identifying the usable portion of a sigmoid. . This approach is more objective than other methods, reducing the variability introduced by individuals and/or by repetition and allows substantially higher throughput in a situation where a lot of samples are being analyzed using the same assay.
