Relative Frequencies of Serum Proteins in White Pekin Ducklings
Relative frequencies of serum proteins in white Pekin ducklings as determined by electrophoresis.
data(ducklings)
The format is: chr "ducklings"
Columns p1, p2, p3
stand for pre-albumin, albumin, globulins respectively.
These were collected from 3-week old white Pekin ducklings.
Let Y1 be proportional to the total milligrams of
pre-albumin in the blood serum of a duckling.
Similarly,
let Y2 and Y3 be directly proportional
to the same factor as Y1 to the total milligrams
respectively of albumin and globulins in its blood serum.
The proportion of pre-albumin is given by
Y1/(Y1 + Y2 + Y3),
and similarly for the others.
