getSpikeInInput: getSpikeInInput

In NanoStringQCPro: Quality metrics and data processing methods for NanoString mRNA gene expression data

Description

Gets the RNA “spike-in” input levels for positive and negative control probes from the label in their GeneName. Note that this is a helper function for readRlf() and elsewhere and is not intended for external use.

Usage

getSpikeInInput(CodeClass, GeneName, nonCtrlProbeVal = NA)

Arguments

CodeClass	Character vector with code classes for each probe.
GeneName	Character vector with gene names/symbols for each probe.
nonCtrlProbeVal	Value to assign as the spike-in input for the non-control probes.

Value

A data frame with the input CodeClass and GeneName but where the latter has been split into two columns: one showing the GeneName for each probe with spike-in input labels removed – and another with the spike-in input levels.
