aCorrelation of log2 fold-change was calculated by comparing maximum response achieved by the MTC tested in the MTC screening versus CR evaluation for 524 samples. Values presented are r2 from Pearson correlations.

bMedian Z-prime across all tested plates using forskolin (FOR) as the control.

cMedian Z-prime across all tested plates using prochloraz (PRO) as the control.

dMedian strictly standardized median difference (SSMD) across all tested plates using FOR as the control.

eMedian SSMD across all tested plates using PRO as the control.

fBaseline median absolute deviation (BMAD; presented as log2 fold-change).

gCR cutoff shown as a fold-change equating to 6× BMAD.
