ifcb_volume_analyzed {iRfcb} | R Documentation |
Estimate Volume Analyzed from IFCB Header File
Description
This function reads an IFCB header file to extract sample run time and inhibittime,
and returns the associated estimate of sample volume analyzed (in milliliters).
The function assumes a standard IFCB configuration with a sample syringe operating
at 0.25 mL per minute. For IFCB instruments after 007 and higher (except 008). This is
the R equivalent function of IFCB_volume_analyzed
from the ifcb-analysis
repository (Sosik and Olson 2007).
Usage
ifcb_volume_analyzed(hdr_file, hdrOnly_flag = FALSE, flowrate = 0.25)
Arguments
hdr_file |
A character vector specifying the path(s) to one or more .hdr files or URLs. |
hdrOnly_flag |
An optional flag indicating whether to skip ADC file estimation (default is FALSE). |
flowrate |
Milliliters per minute for syringe pump (default is 0.25). |
Value
A numeric vector containing the estimated sample volume analyzed for each header file.
