The primary screen hit cutoff was calculated using the interval-based cutoff.
The primary hit cutoff was used.
The counterscreen hit cutoff was calculated by using the average + three standard deviations of the DMSO sample field plates, n=7.
Due to the novelty of this target, compounds with any observable activity in either the primary assay, the Lux assay, but not in the absorbance assay, were of interest for follow-up.
