R Documentation

A simple RNA degradation QC for Affymetrix arrays

Description

A simple wrapper function that uses affy's RNA degradation curves and yaqcaffy's actin and GAPDH 3'/5' ratios to generate a simple RNA degradation QcMetrics results. Optionally generates a QC report. See the qcmetrics vignette for an explanation of the function and an example.

Usage

  rnadeg(input, status, type,
    reportname = "rnadegradation")

Arguments

`input`	A `character` of CEL file names or an instance of class `affybatch`.
`status`	A `logical` of length 2 to set the respective `QcMetric`'s statuses.
`type`	The `type` of the report to be generated. Is missing, no report is generated.
`reportname`	The name of the report.
