RTtools

Overview

RTtools is an R package for working with real-time fluorescence assay data including useful tools for tasks such as importing and parsing instruemnt export files, plotting spectra, and curve fitting and modeling data for downstream numeric comparison.

  • import_traces() imports real-time fluorescence data
  • view_traces() generates plots of real-time fluorescence curves
  • fit_model fits a logarithmic growth curve to the fluorescence curves and extracts numeric values for growth rate (rise time) and endpoint fluorescence
  • view_model generates a plot of the model parameters endpoint vs rate

Installation

You can install the development version from GitHub with:
