R Documentation

Calculation of the melting temperatures (Tm, Tm1D2 and Tm2D2) from the first and the second derivative

Description

diffQ2() calls instances of diffQ() to calculate the Tm1D2 and Tm2D2. The options are similar to diffQ(). Both diffQ() and diffQ2() return objects of the class list. To accessing components of lists is done as described elsewhere either be name or by number. diffQ2 has no standalone plot function. For sophisticated analysis and plots it is recommended to use diffQ2 as presented in the examples as part of algorithms.

Usage

diffQ2(
  xy,
  fct = max,
  fws = 8,
  col = 2,
  plot = FALSE,
  verbose = FALSE,
  peak = FALSE,
  deriv = FALSE,
  negderiv = TRUE,
  derivlimits = FALSE,
  derivlimitsline = FALSE,
  vertiline = FALSE,
  rsm = FALSE,
  inder = FALSE,
  warn = TRUE
)

Arguments

`xy`	is a `data.frame` containing in the first column the temperature and in the second column the fluorescence values. Preferably the output from `mcaSmoother` is used.
`fct`	accepts `min` or `max` as option and is used to define whether to find a local minimum (“negative peak”) or local maximum (“positive peak”).
`fws`	defines the number (n) of left and right neighbors to use for the calculation of the quadratic polynomial.
`col`	is a graphical parameter used to define the length of the line used in the plot.
`plot`	shows a plot of a single melting curve with (Tm) as vertical line and the second derivatives (Tm1D2 and Tm2D2). To draw multiple curves in a single plot set `plot = FALSE` and create and empty plot instead (see examples).
`verbose`	shows additional information (e.g., first and second approximate derivatives, ranges used for calculation, approximate Tm, Tm1D2, Tm2D2) of the calculation.
`peak`	shows the peak in the plot.
`deriv`	shows the first derivative with the color assigned to `col` (see examples).
`negderiv`	calculates the negative derivative (default). If `FALSE` the positive first negative is calculated.
`derivlimits`	shows the number (n) used to calculate the Tm as points in the plot (see examples).
`derivlimitsline`	shows the number (n) used to calculate the Tm as line in the plot (see examples).
`vertiline`	draws a vertical line at the Tms (see examples).
`rsm`	performs a doubling of the temperature resolution by calculation of the mean temperature and mean fluorescence between successive temperature steps. Note: mcaSmoother has the "n" parameter with a similar but advanced functionality.
`inder`	Interpolates derivatives using the five-point stencil. See `chipPCR` package for details.
`warn`	diffQ tries to keep the user as informed as possible about the quality of the analysis. However, in some scenarios are the warning and message about analysis not needed or disturbing. `warn` can be used to stop the swapping of the output.
