{rutledge} is an R data package that provides real-time PCR raw fluorescence data by Rutledge et al. (2004) in tidy format.
The eponymous data set rutledge comprises a six-point, ten-fold dilution series repeated in 5 independent runs. In each run, for each concentration there are four replicates. Of a total of 240 amplification curves, 212 curves are 45 cycles long and 28 curves are 35 cycles long only. The data is for two targets (amplicons): K1/K2, 102 bp, and K3/K2, 218 bp.
Install {rutledge} from CRAN:
You can install the development version of {rutledge} like so:
rutledge is provided as a tidy data set, in long format, i.e. each row is for an amplication curve point (cycle/fluor).
