R Dataset / Package DAAG / ACF1
On this R-data statistics page, you will find information about the ACF1 data set which pertains to Aberrant Crypt Foci in Rat Colons. The ACF1 data set is found in the DAAG R package. You can load the ACF1 data set in R by issuing the following command at the console data("ACF1"). This will load the data into a variable called ACF1. If R says the ACF1 data set is not found, you can try installing the package by issuing this command install.packages("DAAG") and then attempt to reload the data with the library() command. If you need to download R, you can go to the R project website. You can download a CSV (comma separated values) version of the ACF1 R data set. The size of this file is about 122 bytes.
Aberrant Crypt Foci in Rat Colons
Description
Numbers of aberrant crypt foci (ACF) in the section 1 of the colons of 22 rats subjected to a single dose of the carcinogen azoxymethane (AOM), sacrificed at 3 different times.
Usage
ACF1
Format
This data frame contains the following columns:
- count
-
The number of ACF observed in section 1 of each rat colon
- endtime
-
Time of sacrifice, in weeks following injection of AOM
