Functional genomics experiments based on DNA array technologies, either under the platform of cDNA or oligonucleotides, is the dominant technology. Any of the platforms used generates an array of gene expression (GEM). Discounting the laboratory artifacts introduced during the obtention of a GEM, one of the main limitations of these techniques is that the statistical analysis is complex and requires specialized software applications. The Bioconductor project has produced a lot of routines developed in R, which are oriented to analyzing functional genomics experiments. These routines are computationally efficient, are stable and are optimized for the analysis of gene expression arrays. However, its use requires a high level of specialization, which involves handling concepts and object-oriented techniques and be familiar with the syntax of the R programming language. Most biologists and biotechnologists do not have the necessary training to use these routines and this circumstance forces them to rely on data analysis services. Moreover, every analyst knows that the analysis process requires successive approximations and this implies that the researcher has to repeat the analysis from different perspectives or under various scenarios, which is not possible when you depend on a standardized processing service. It is therefore important that researchers could have friendly tools for the analysis of functional genomics data. fgStatistics is a software with a visual interface that takes advantage of the enormous potential of the R platform and packages specifically routines, developed in the framework of Bioconductor, to offer a freeware tool that covers the basic needs of a biologist or biotechnologist for data analysis DNA microarrays. Additionally, for advanced users, offers a programming interface that allows R use the full potential of this language without leaving the workplace and accessing data structures and objects that generate procedures with friendly interfaces.

LinRegPCR is a program for the analysis of quantitative RT-PCR (qPCR) data resulting from monitoring the PCR reaction with SYBR green or similar fluorescent dyes. The program determines a baseline fluorescence and does a baseline subtraction. Then a Window-of-Linearity is set and PCR efficiencies per sample are calculated. With the mean PCR efficiency per amplicon, the Ct value per sample and the fluorescence threshold set to determnine the Ct, the starting concentration per sample, expressed in arbitrary fluorescence units, is calculated
