Method for outputting results of comparison of abundances of biopolymers

摘要

For comparatively displaying the abundances of a large number of biopolymer species as measured in two different samples in an efficient and distinguishable manner, the values measured for biopolymer abundances in the two samples are normalized so that the sum totals of the measured values as calculated for both samples become equal to each other and the biopolymer abundance ratios between both samples are displayed in the form of a line graph, with the ordinate (logarithmic scale axis) denoting the abundance ratio for each biopolymer between both samples and the abscissa denoting the biopolymer species. On the same graph, the sum of abundances of each biopolymer in both samples may also be displayed along the Y axis as a second axis.
