Fig. 5From: An optimized library for reference-based deconvolution of whole-blood biospecimens assayed using the Illumina HumanMethylationEPIC BeadArrayComparison of the estimated cell proportions using constrained projection/quadratic programming (CP/QP) versus the FACS measured fraction in EPIC and 450Â K platforms. a Whole blood cell samples arrayed using the EPIC platform with known (FACS) fractions for the six main cell subtypes. Cell estimates were obtained using the EPIC IDOL method. b Whole blood cell samples arrayed using the Illumina 450Â K platform with known (FACS) fractions for the six main cell subtypes. Cell estimates were obtained using the EPIC IDOL 450Â K legacy method. c Five out of 11 observations on the longitudinal dataset run with EPIC had FACS informationBack to article page
