Parses absorbance spectrum data exported from a Tecan Spark plate reader using Magellan software. Parsing consists of data extraction, data tidying, and data joining to relevant metadata.

Usage

parse_magellan_spectrum(
  data_csv,
  metadata_csv,
  wellstart = "A1",
  wellend = "H12"
)

Arguments

data_csv: path to CSV file from Tecan Spark plate reader
metadata_csv: path to CSV file containing metadata
wellstart: character string representing first well recorded in data file. Defaults to "A1".
wellend: character string representing last well recorded in data file. Defaults to "H12".

Value

a data.frame containing the parsed plate reader data

Examples

if (FALSE) {
  parsed_data <- parse_magellan_spectrum(
    data_csv = "data/20210104_data.csv",
    metadata_csv = "data/20210104_metadata.csv",
    wellstart = "A1", wellend = "H12"
