antibiotox: Toxicity of Seven Antibiotics on Photobacteria

Description

Seven antibiotics are: Neomycin sulfate(NEO), streptomycin sulfate(STR), kanamycin sulfate(KAN), spectinomycin dihydrochloridehydrate(SPE), paromomycin sulfate(PAR), dihydrostreptomycin sesquisulfate hydrate(DIH), and gentamycin sulfate(GEN). Their toxicity on photobacteria Q67 were tested using microplate toxicity analysis. The concentration-responses include the toxicity of seven antibiotics, two eecr mixtures, and ten mixtures designed by udcr. The curve fitting information of seven antibiotics and a total of 12 mixtures.

Usage

Arguments

Details

Quantal responses[0, 1] are needed for curve fitting using the following six equaitons: i.e., Weibull, Logit, Hill, BCL, GL, BCW. The following equation could transform continous responses to quantal ones: $$E = \frac{{{I_0} - {I_i}}}{{{I_0}}}$$ where $I_0$ is the average of controls for inhibition tests or the average of the maximum effect for stimulation tests and $I_i$ the average effect of the $i^{th}$ treatment.
