In COMBIA: Synergy/Antagonism Analyses of Drug Combinations

Description

Extracts the keyvalues (Barcode) from a dataset, every plate needs barcode. Keyvalues are extracted from the header of the plates at the position specified by keyposition argument.

Usage

extractKey(keyposition, rawdata, numberofrowsperplate, doubleplateexperiment)

Arguments

keyposition	Position of keyvalue in the header of plate.
rawdata	An object(dataframe) of rawdata.
numberofrowsperplate	This argument is not needed when you call function "readFluostarPlates". The number of rows depend upon the geometry of the plates. These are 16 in case of 384well paltes.
doubleplateexperiment	This parameter can have TRUE & FALSE values only. It is set to TRUE when an experiment is performed twice and we only want to choose only one of them.

Value

A complete set of keyvalues.

f <- system.file("extdata", "optima.log", package="COMBIA")
fileDF <- readFile(filename = f,  separator = "\t", noofrows_skip=0,
                   platetype="384")  
Generatedbarcode <- extractKey(keyposition = 2, rawdata = fileDF, 
                              numberofrowsperplate = 17, 
                              doubleplateexperiment = TRUE)
