Distributions of measured values of cytokines in multiple aliquots of a pooled sample after various durations of storage. The y-axes, except for IL-17A, are scaled to the ranges from the healthy volunteer measurements. The horizontal line is at the overall mean; the marks (×) indicate the estimated assay means from the mixed model regression. The left and right vertical lines in the OPG plot indicate the changes in the platform software and kit, respectively. The vertical line in the VEGF-A and IL-17A plots indicates the change in software. There was no change in the assay environment for OPN
