Hello David,

Thanks for the feedback on HTqPCR. I've never really thought of  
filtering out samples during my own analysis, hence no option in  
filterCtData. The default way is by doing subsetting, such as qPCRset 
[,c(1:3,5)], or by using sample names as you do in your example.  
However, I guess a specific filtering option might also be useful in  
other cases, such as potentially removing samples that have a high  
proportion of NA values and can therefore be considered failed plates/ 
samples.

I'll put it on the todo list of HTqPCR improvements.

CHeers
