sample description file
Description
The sample description file contains all information concerning the samples of a reverse phase protein experiment.
Format
tab delimeted text file
Details
The sample description file contains information for sample annotation and data analysis.
To identify the sample in the source well plate the columns plate
, row
, column
are obligatory. It is neccessary that every well that is spottet is described.
The columns sample_type
and sample
as well as concentration
and
for serially diluted samples dilution
are required for data analysis.
To fit a model to serial dilution e.g. using the calcSdc
function, it
is neccessary to indicate the highest concentration in the dilution
column
with the value 1.
Any additionally column can be added to describe further phenodata of interest.
Source
The data set contains original reverse phase protein array signals with randomized pheno and feature data.
