getQC2 {BeadExplorer} | R Documentation

## Generate QC data

### Description

Generates QC data from version 2 of BeadStudio

### Usage

    getQC2(beadData, qcfile)

### Arguments

`beadData` | Object of class `beadData-class`
`qcfile` | File path of the BeadStudio (v2) qc file that corresponds to the `beadData-class` object

### Details

Generates QC data using the beadData object and its corresponding qcfile. The qcfile is produced from BeadStudio version two. In contrast to version one of BeadStudio, version 2 requires the user to save the qcfile manually as a '.txt' file. This can be done by selecting the 'Control Probe profile' tab in BeadStudio (V2) and saving this data. A mapping file with this package is used to map the Illumina 'ProbeID' to the control type. Currently only Human WG-6 BeadChips mapping files are supplied but others will be added in the future. The mapping file used is selected from the array type of the beadData argument.

### Value

An object of class `beadQC-class`
