Recalculate the concentrations for the chronic oral tests for bees from mg a.s./kg feed to \mug/bee

Description

Recalculate the concentrations for the chronic oral tests for bees from mg a.s./kg feed to \mug/bee

Usage

concCst(cExt, f_rate = c(25), targConc = 1, cstConcCal = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

cExt

The concentration dataframe in mg a.s./kg feed

f_rate

A vector containing the feeding rates of the bees in mg/bee/day. If the vector is of size 1, the same feeding rate is used for all test conditions. If the vector is of size >1, it should be of the same size as the number of condition and one feeding rate must be provided per condition. Default is 25 mg/bee/day

targConc

A numerical scalar representing the unit of the target concentration amongst (default = 1)

  • 1 for \mug a.s./bee

  • 2 for ng a.s./bee

  • 3 for mg a.s./bee

cstConcCal

Logical. Indicate if concentrations should be recalculated from mg a.s./kg feed to Xg/bee

...

Not used

Value

A data frame containing a column with the time points and a column with the recalculated concentrations

Examples

cExt <- data.frame(SurvivalTime = c(0,10), Control = c(0,0),
        T1 = c(1, 1), T2 = c(5, 5), Dataset = c(1, 1))
conc <- concCst(cExt, targConc = 2)
