Symmetrical strip-plot layout for duplicate wells corrects for row artifacts. A. Symmetrical plate layout design in which duplicate wells are positioned symmetrically with respect to the plate center. Blue and red colors on this and other panels denote 1.6- and 16.8-fold dilutions, respectively. Colored circles denote three examples of duplicate wells: B1 and G12, H1 and A12, and D2 and E11. B. Correction of row-to-row location effects in samples arranged symmetrically. The conditions of the experiment are similar to shown on Figure 2 with the exception of a different layout design. Means ± S.D. (n = 2 wells).
