PoreXpert uses an XML based file format to store all the operations performed on the experimental and simulated data. There are two types of PoreXpert file format. There is the uncompressed “.PoreXpert” file format; if you use this format the file sizes can get very large. There is also a compressed “.Pxt” file format.

Both formats contain the same data; we recommend using the compressed file format as it keeps the file sizes more manageable. You can use either PoreXpert file format with the mobile viewer for iOS and Android systems or the external Porextract cell viewer.
