Claim One:
1. A method of analysis, wherein molecular interactions at one or more sensing surface areas are detected and respective response curves representing the progress of each interaction with time are produced, and wherein a resulting set of response curves is subjected to a quality assessment procedure, the method comprising the steps of: a) selecting at least one quality-related parameter for the response curves, and for each different parameter defining at least one quality descriptor; b) computing for each response curve in the set thereof, values for the different quality descriptors; c) based on the values for the different quality descriptors, computing for each response curve a quality classification indicative of the quality of the response curve in relation to all response curves of the set; d) selecting response curves having deviating quality classifications; and e) subjecting the selected response curves to a validation procedure to determine whether a response curve or curves are to be rejected or not.
