Preface

This is the R Seahorse data analysis manual using functions from the Seahtrue package. Its purpose is to demonstrate and educate how to use R for Extracellular Flux analysis. We use a dedicated data analysis pipeline for quality control and advanced plotting of the data.

You can run R this manual in your browser and do not need to install any R or Rstudio software on your computer.

Note

The manual is targeted to all levels of learning, meaning that also interested learners without any R background or programming knowledge can use it
