Abstract:
1. A gene assaying method comprising the steps of: acquiring, with a processor of an analyzing device, two or more data to be compared and which represents expression levels of a plurality of target genes; converting, with the processor of the analyzing device, the expression levels represented by the acquired two or more data into ratios, wherein each ratio is converted based on the expression level of one of the plurality of target genes in the two or more data; extracting, with the processor of the analyzing device, a minimum ratio and a maximum ratio of each target gene; and classifying, with the processor of the analyzing device, the plurality of target genes using as a classification border at least one of a first ratio from the peak in a frequency distribution of the minimum ratios and a second ratio from the peak in a frequency distribution of reciprocals of the maximum ratios, wherein,
