Report control data from a specified range of microtiter plates or experiments from a specified database.

checkcontrols(last = 10, id = NULL, 
                db = c("cytotox", "enzymes", "ecotox"),
                celltype = "IPC-81", enzymetype = "AChE", 
                organism = "Vibrio fischeri",
                endpoint = "%", qcc = c("R", "xbar"))

Arguments

last

If id is not specified, this argument specifies the number of plates/experiments that should be evaluated. The plates/experiments with the hightest numbers are selected.

id

A numeric vector of integers, specifying the plates or experiments explicitly.

db

The database to be used. Currently, the microtiter plate databases "cytotox", "enzymes" of the UFT Department of Bioorganic Chemistry are supported, as well as the database of ecotoxicity experiments "ecotox".

celltype

Only important if database "cytotox" is used. Data for "IPC-81", "C6", "NB4", "HeLa", "Jurkat" and "U937" are available.

enzymetype

Only important if database "enzymes" is used. Data for "AChE", "GR" and "GST" are available.

organism

Only important if database "ecotox" is used.

endpoint

The endpoint that should be used for selecting the data. Only important if the database "ecotox" is used. Defaults to "%".

qcc

The type of quality control charts to be plotted. By default, an R chart (showing ranges of control values within plates/experiments), and an xbar chart (showing means) are generated.

Value

The function lists a report and shows two graphs.
