matrixByPlate {qpcrNorm} | R Documentation |
This function takes a vector of Ct values from a single qPCR experiment and reorganizes it into a matrix structure. Each column in the matrix represents a different plate that was used in the experiment.
matrixByPlate(xvec, plateIndex)
xvec |
Numeric vector of Ct values. |
plateIndex |
Character vector, denoting plate index of each gene or primer pair. |
On the resulting matrix structure:
The number of rows equals the maximum number of genes or primer pairs that were used on a plate in the experiment.
For plates with less genes, NA values are padded at the end of the column vector to complete the rectangular structure.
Note: these NA values do not affect downstream calculations.
