Description
QPCR Ct Values to Expression Values.
Description
Computes normalized cycle threshold (Ct) values (delta Ct) from raw quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) Ct values and conducts test of significance using t.test(). Plots expression values based from log2(2^(-1*delta delta Ct)) across groups per gene of interest. Methods for calculation of delta delta Ct and relative expression (2^(-1*delta delta Ct)) values are described in: Livak & Schmittgen, (2001) <doi:10.1006/meth.2001.1262>.
