AnalyzeLadder

AnalyzeLadder[Peaks]Object

fits a standard curve function to molecular size (e.g. oligomer length) from peak position.

AnalyzeLadder[Data]Object

fits the standard curve to peak positions taken from the most recent peaks analysis linked to the given data object. Runs AnalyzePeaks if no linked analysis object is found.

Messages  (6)

AnalyzePeaksFailure  (1)

Calling AnalyzeLadder on a ReferenceField that does not interact well with AnalyzePeaks will result in an error:

DefaultSizes  (1)

Calling AnalyzeLadder on a data object that does not have a properly set Composition field of the linked Samples object results in a warning that a default ladder size set is being used:

NoPickedPeaks  (1)

Given peaks object has no picked peaks:

PeaksFieldEmpty  (2)

Conducts Analyze Peaks, but Fail because only 1 peak picked.

Input CESDS object has not had its RelativeMigrationData field peak-picked yet:

ReferenceFieldNotResolved  (1)

If the given reference field is not a valid peaks field of the data object, Automatic will be used instead:
