Description |
Range definitions in time courses |
rangedef |
string |
Defines whether the ranges given below refer to frames or seconds in the recordings |
Baseline Range |
BaselineRange |
string |
Defines the range of the baseline (in the above defined time units). Longer baseline results more accurate calibration. |
VF (mitochondria:cell volume fraction) |
VF |
real |
Confocal stereologic volume fraction of mitochondria (inner boundary membrane) to whole cell (including nucleus) |
VFM (matrix:mitochondrion volume fraction) |
VFM |
real |
EM stereologic volume fraction of matrix to mitochondrion (inner boundary membrane) |
aR` (matrix:cytosol apparent activity coefficient ratio) |
aR |
real |
Apparent activity coefficient ratio measured by confocal microscopy |
MDC Range |
MDCRange |
string |
The range of Mitochondrial Depolarization Cocktail addition (in the above defined time units). This range will be narrowed by differentiation kernel size and delay time. |
MDC Delay (s) |
MDCdelay |
real |
Delay time after starting Mitochondrial Depolarization Cocktail treatment to allow mitochondrial membrane potential to discharge completely (in seconds). |
CDC Range |
CDCRange |
string |
The range of Complete Depolarization Cocktail addition (in the above defined time units). |
Take the minimum of CDC Range |
CDCMin |
boolean |
If set yes, the minimum FLIPR intensity within the CDC Range is taken as zero calibration value (its error is the local SD of the range). Otherwise mean is calculated. |
fT0-fTX Allowed Range |
fT0MinusfTXRange |
string |
Trace selection criterion: the minimum and maximum allowed value of fT0-fTX |
Quality control based on MDC calibrates to zero |
QCMDC |
boolean |
Removes traces where MDC does not calibrate to zero, or noisy. Set threshold below. |
Maximum deviation from zero (mV) |
QCMDCdeviation |
real |
Traces where the absolute mean or SD of MDC Range is larger than this number are removed. |
Quality control by propagated error of baseline |
QCMMPrest |
boolean |
Removes traces where the estimated SE of baseline is greater than the threshold below. Requires error propagation. |
Maximum SE of baseline (mV) |
QCMMPrestMaxSE |
real |
Traces where the SE of resting ΔψM parameter is larger than this number are removed. |
kT Allowed Range |
kTRange |
string |
Trace selection criterion: the minimum and maximum allowed value of kT |
Maximum allowed DTE |
DTEMax |
real |
Threshold value to eliminate the early steep part of TMRM decay, where ΔψM may not be fully depolarized. This is a criterion for the exact length of data to be used for regression. |
Range of regression ends at zero DTE |
TruncateRegressionAtZero |
boolean |
Criterion for the exact length of data to be used for regression. |
TMRM r^2 Min |
TMRMr2Min |
real |
Trace selection criterion: the minimum allowed value of r^2 for the TMRM-regression. |
Filter regression points to the straightest section |
FilterRegression |
boolean |
In addition to the above constrains, the most linear middle section of the DTE-FTE diagram is used for regression. Turn off "Range of regression ends at zero DTE" if using this method, and use zero for "MDC Delay (s)". |
Tolerance for straightness |
StraightnessTolerance |
real |
Maximum allowed fold change in derivative where the linear fit is performed. |
Use K-steps instead of CDC to calculate ft0 |
forcezero |
boolean |
Uses TMRM fluorescence and calculated ΔψP corresponding to K-steps to calculate ft0 instead of measuring it in the CDC range. Use this option of measurment of ft0 is problematic for some reason. |
