qpcrNorm (version 1.30.0)

calcCV: Calculates the Average Gene-Specific Coefficient of Variation

Description

This function calculates the coefficient of variation for each gene in the qPCR experiment, and returns the average coefficient of variation across all genes.

Usage

calcCV(qBatch)

Arguments

qBatch

A qpcrBatch object.

Value

A numeric value.

Examples

	data(qpcrBatch.object) 
	mynormRI.data <- normQpcrRankInvariant(qpcrBatch.object, 1)
	mynormQuant.data <- normQpcrQuantile(qpcrBatch.object)    
	barplot(c(calcCV(mynormRI.data), calcCV(mynormQuant.data)), col=c("red", "blue"))
