Project Summary (1995-2000)
This project has two purposes. As the statistics core, the project provides statistical support to other Superfund projects. This typically involves assistance in experimental design or in the analysis and interpretation of data. The other purpose of this project is the development of statistical methods and algorithms to solve problems that occur in the use of ELISA and other analytical methods for toxic substances. Work includes: multiple-analyte ELISA, optimal design of ELISA protocols, robust statistical analysis of multivariate chemical data, and improved estimation of standards curves for ELISA.
