  specimennames, means)

Arguments

cyto_session

- API authentication token for session

markersofinterest

- List of names of channel parameters in Cytobank

popsofinterest

- List of populations of interest to calculate percentages with reference population for percentages listed first

exptID

- Integer representing an experiment ID on Cytobank account

grouping
