7 22 2015 BMP2 qPCR 2

Today I ran duplicates for the targets I ran last week. I'm hoping to get strong replicates for analysis. Here I ran the BMP2 which last week had issues with the NTC.

Results:

All samples
NTCs

These amplification curves look better than the last run of BMP2. There is some minor amplification in the NTCs but it is larger than the target and is probably an artifact of the PCR process. To analyze these data I ran them through an updated stats and graphs script which runs a Two Way ANOVA and produces a boxplot and expression bar graph. The data did not have its outliers eliminated which worked fine with this as most samples showed some expression.

There definitely appears a significant difference between treatment and control. From the stats it appears the Oyster Bay population control has significantly larger expression of BMP2 than the other two populations as well as it the Oyster Bay treatment. You can see this in the bar graph generated below.


The most distressing thing about these data is that it doesn't match the graphs from last week. The controls have much lower expression than they did last week which should not have changed between replicates. I reran the previous data with all the outliers but it still doesn't change the statistics.

The stats don't match which is distressing. Even the boxplots dont seem to match.
