Description

Technical Data Sets by Ruijter et al. (2013).

The real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technical data sets by Ruijter et al. (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.ymeth.2012.08.011>: (i) the four-point 10-fold dilution series; (ii) 380 replicates; and (iii) the competimer data set. These three data sets can be used to benchmark qPCR methods. Original data set is available at <https://medischebiologie.nl/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/qpcrdatamethods.zip>. This package fixes incorrect annotations in the original data sets.

CRANstatus R-CMD-check

{ruijter} is an R data package that provides the real-time qPCR technical data sets used in Ruijter et al. (2013) in tidy format, namely:

  • The 94-replicates-4-dilutions data set: ds_94_4
  • The 380 replicates data set: ds_380
  • The competimer data set: ds_competimer

Installation

Install {ruijter} from CRAN:

# Install from CRAN
install.packages("ruijter")

You can install the development version of {ruijter} like so:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("ramiromagno/ruijter")
