Hi,
I must say that I'm fairly new to microarrays and is my first attempt.
I have 2 chips with 6 heterozygous samples on one and wildtype
on the other (poorly designed).The chip is MOUSEWG-6_V2.
I have the raw data which is the output from iScan and needs to be processed
using processSwathData function and also the Final data - which is the
summarised data from GenomeStudio. I have all the necessary files-
Swath_Grn.locs,.tif,Metrics,_beadTypeFile.txt,perBeadTypeFile.txt for analysis.
Running the processSwathData function with default values (I dont know how to
find the value for swathOverlap parameter)
processSwathData(inputDir = dir1, outputDir =dirOp1 , twoColour=NULL,
textstring="_perBeadFile.txt", segmentHeight = 326, segmentWidth = 397,
swathOverlap = 81, fullOutput = FALSE, newTextString=".txt", verbose = FALSE)
Output...
Ist chip:
5665095021_A_1
5665095021_A_2
5665095021_B_1
Error in if (all(txt[txtDups[i + 1], 3:4] == txt[txtDups[i], 3:4])) { :
missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed
2nd Chip :
Error in scan(file, what, nmax, sep, dec, quote, skip, nlines, na.strings, :
scan() expected 'an integer', got '0.72'
I noticed that in 5665095021_A_1_perBeadFile.txt, in line it has only one
entry (0.72) instead of 4. Is there a way to bypass this problem because I
cannot read into the function readIllumina()
On the other hand I am trying to proceed with the summarised Data
from GenomeStudio. I donot have much information to perform analysis
on this output iScanb using beadarray.
Is there a way to club the summarised data from both the chips.
I tried the combine function but it does not work.
Any tutorials on this would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
John.
