Key Features

• Analysis for assays such as digital ELISA <https://dx.doi.org/10.1038%2Fnbt.1641>__.
• Calculation of calibration curves, concentrations, limits of detection, and more.
• Free and open-source software under the GNU General Public License v3 <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.html>__.

Getting Started

• Installation: waltlabtools can be installed using conda <https://anaconda.org/tylerdougan/waltlabtools>__ or pip <https://pypi.org/project/waltlabtools/>__. In the command line,

  • conda: conda install -c tylerdougan waltlabtools

  • pip: pip install waltlabtools

• Dependencies: waltlabtools requires scipy <https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/getting_started.html>__ ≥ 1.3.1, and either jax <https://jax.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>__ ≥ 0.1.64 or numpy <https://numpy.org/doc/stable/index.html>__ ≥ 1.10.0.
