Overview

About

Maintained by Ilana TrumbleCRAN page ↗

Calculates maximum likelihood estimate, exact and asymptotic confidence intervals, and exact and asymptotic goodness of fit p-values for concentration of infectious units from serial limiting dilution assays. This package uses the likelihood equation, exact goodness of fit p-values, and exact confidence intervals described in Meyers et al. (1994) http://jcm.asm.org/content/32/3/732.full.pdf. This software is also implemented as a web application through the Shiny R package https://iupm.shinyapps.io/sldassay/.

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/SLDAssay/SLDAssay_1.8.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "SLDAssay_1.8.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (1.8) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
