A fluorescence assay device performs a fluorescence assay of one or more samples including fluorescent materials, causing a plurality of sets of datapoint to be stored relating to received fluorescence emitted by the fluorescent materials. A user interface displays representations of some of the sets of datapoints. A first region of the user interface includes alphanumeric representations of a subset of the plurality of sets of datapoints, including one or more user-specified sets of datapoints. A second region of the user interface includes one or more pictographic representations of the one or more user-selected sets of datapoints. The one or more pictographic representations indicate categorizations of values of the particular set of datapoints for the one or more samples.

Apparatus and methods for analyzing samples, including for example, samples containing nucleic acids, antibodies, and/or antigens are described. The apparatus may include a frame having a cartridge receiver, two optical devices, thermal cycler, lysis assembly, hybridization heater, and sample transfer assembly. In use, the apparatus may perform multiple sample preparation and analysis processes within the same disposable cartridge including, for example, performing a PCR assay and immunoassay in the same cartridge.
