[BioC] GCRMA question

[Arne.Muller at sanofi-aventis.com]

Hello,

If you are interested in investigating the 3 different cell sorting methods and you use ANOVA for downstream analysis you have to normalize the data together, otherwise you won't be able to distinguish between the real treatment effect and "random" fluctuations.

	kind regards,

	Arne
