uPAD DATA Figs 3_4_5_6.xlsx

The given data set (Sheet 1) compiles the growth scores of several different yeast and bacterial colonies grown on different channel parameters (varied agar volume and channel width). The qualifications for each growth score are given as part of Figures 1 and 2 for the corresponding submission. The growth scores and statistical analysis of such scores compose the data visualized in Figures 3 and 4.<br>Sheet 2 of the data set compares the growth rates of yeast and bacteria as measured by the traditional assay and proposed uPAD assay for both microbes, as well as a statistical analysis of the correlation between the growth scores recorded with both assays. The traditional assays for the yeast and bacteria include a suspended culture measured by spectrophotometry and a Petri dish assay to measure colonial diameter, respectively. The data from these experiments are visualized in Figures 5 and 6.
