## S4 class definition of an elisa_plate object

### Description

elisa_plate define the S4 class of an elisa_plate object

### Arguments

 batchID characters to specify the batch expID characters to specify experiment or plate ID desc characters for the data/experiment information data.std data.frame for standard curve data data.unknown data.frame containing data for samples with unknown concentration normFactor numeric the correction factor for batch effects ("S"). mdata.unknown data.frame containing the mean ODs and concentration by sample IDs. mdata.std data.frame containing the mean ODs and concentrations for standard data

### Details

defining the S4 class of the elisa_plate object. This is the data structure to hold the elisa_plate Data. It contains different slots for holding both standard and unknown data. It also defines the regression model and the correction parameter for the batch effects.
Note: we assume each plate has its own standard curve.
