Merges the analytical replicates of an experiment

Usage

replicate_sum(
  data,
  metadata_sample,
  metadata_info = c(Conditions = "Conditions", Biological_Replicates =
    "Biological_Replicates", Analytical_Replicates = "Analytical_Replicates"),
  save_table = "csv",
  path = NULL
)

Arguments

data: DF which contains unique sample identifiers as row names and metabolite numerical values in columns with metabolite identifiers as column names. Use NA for metabolites that were not detected.
metadata_sample: DF which contains information about the samples Column "Conditions", "Biological_replicates" and "Analytical_Replicates has to exist.
metadata_info: Optional: Named vector including the Conditions and Replicates information: c(Conditions="ColumnNameConditions", Biological_Replicates="ColumnName_metadata_sample", Analytical_Replicates="ColumnName_metadata_sample").Default = NULL
save_table: Optional: File types for the analysis results are: "csv", "xlsx", "txt", ot NULL default: "csv"
path: Optional: Path to the folder the results should be saved at. default: NULL

Value

DF with the merged analytical replicates

Examples

Intra <- intracell_raw %>%tibble::column_to_rownames("Code")
Res <- replicate_sum(data=Intra[-c(49:58) ,-c(1:3)],
                                metadata_sample=Intra[-c(49:58) , c(1:3)],
                                metadata_info = c(Conditions="Conditions", Biological_Replicates="Biological_Replicates", Analytical_Replicates="Analytical_Replicates"))
