The subject factor in the ANOVA model is listed as “8. Subject (6. Type)” this means that Subject is nested in Type. PGS Partek Genomics Suite can automatically detect this sort of hierarchical design and will adjust the ANOVA calculation accordingly.

Because the data is log2 transformed, PGS Partek Genomics Suite will automatically detect this and will automatically select Yes in the Data is already log transformed? at the in the top right-hand corner . PGS of the dialog. Partek Genomics Suite will use the geometric mean of the samples in each group to calculate the fold change and mean ratio for the contrast between the Down syndrome and Normal samples.

Now that you have obtained statistical results from the microarray experiment, you can now take the result of 22,283 genes and create a new spreadsheet of just those genes that pass certain criteria. This will streamline data management by focusing on just those genes with the most significant differential expression or substantial fold change. In PGS, the The List Manager can be used to specify numerous conditions to use in the generation of our list of genes of interest. In this tutorial, we are going to create a gene list with a fold change between -1.3 to 1.3 with an unadjusted p-value of < 0.0005. 

...

You should take some time creating new gene list criteria of your own to become familiar with the List Manager tool in PGS. For more information, you can always click on the () buttons.
