GE Healthcare Fold-change compression. Lowess curves of the log2 fold-change compression estimated with the GE Healtchare platform as a function of the average processed intensity. The No background correction as well as the glog transformation produce high fold-change compression at low processed intensities. The fold-change compression at low intensities affects the correlation between gold-standard fold-changes and those obtained with microarray data (see Table 2).
