A software package for the calculation and statistical analysis of 51Cr-release assays

A software package has been developed to calculate, store, and statistically analyze the results of 51Cr-release assays. It is written in Applesoft BASIC, is 'user friendly', and contains error trapping routines to catch most common mistakes. The greeting program contains a master menu from which one of the following programs may be called up: (1) 51Cr-release calculation, (2) statistical analysis, or (3) file manager. These programs give the user the capability to rapidly reduce cpm data to % specific release and statistically analyze the results using randomized design analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Turkey's honestly significant difference (HSD) test.
