This guide is for an old version of Prism. Browse the latest version or update Prism

Prism provides two sets of dose-response equations. One set assumes you have entered concentrations (or doses) as X. The other set assumes you entered the logarithms of concentration or dose.  

If you entered actual doses or concentrations, instead of their logarithms, but want to use an equation that assumes the X values are logarithms, use Prism to transform the X values.

1.From the data table, click Analyze and then choose Transform Concentrations (X), which is the second analysis listed on the Analyze dialog.

2.On the dialog, check the option to transform X to logarithms. Base 10 (common) logarithms are used most commonly.

3.If any of your X values are 0.0, use the option at the top of the dialog to change these to some small concentration. The reason for this is that the logarithm of zero is not defined.
