Measure DNA concentration for using qubit to quantify DNA

Description

Measure DNA concentration for using qubit to quantify DNA

Usage

measure_dna_concentration(plate_reader_file,
  standards_plate_reader_file = plate_reader_file, standard_wells, dye_used,
  qubit_volume = 2, elution_volume = 100, plate_size = 96,
  plate_name = "DNA_Plate", print_standard_curve = FALSE,
  omit_standards = NULL)

Arguments

plate_reader_file

relative location to relevant plate reader file (accepts excel files)

standards_plate_reader_file

relative location to the plate reader file containing the standards (if it is the same as the plate you want to quantify, it is not necessary to explicitly specify

standard_wells

a vector containing the wells that contain the standards in increasing concentration (e.g. c("A01", "A02", "A03", "A04", "A05", "A06", "A07", "A08")) - needs to be sequential. If you need to exclude any standards, use omit_standards

dye_used

"BR" or "HS" to specify quantification with HS or BR dye

qubit_volume

volume of sample used for quantification (default = 2)

elution_volume

volume of your sample (used to compute total DNA in sample, default = 100)

plate_size

size of plate (default = 96, alternative is 384 - not tested yet)

plate_name

name to give plate (helps when using multiple plates)

print_standard_curve

TRUE or FALSE to indicate whether or not to save a .pdf image containing the standard curve

omit_standards

pass along a well location to exclude from standard analysis (helpful for when one fails)

Value

table with DNA concentrations for each sample, given the input parameters
