hello how I can normalize ExpressionSet file?( I downloaded a GSE, and it does not have a Supplementary File). I try to normalize this file with normalize.ExpressionSet.quantiles() function in the affyPLM package, but its QC boxplot (and other diagrams) does not change before and after normalization.

is there another packages or functions to this purpose?

can I normalize samples with the following data with the limma package?

Thank you.

The affy package can do normalisation, but if your boxplots don't change before and after, it may be that the data has already been normalised.

thank you for your response. I sure that my data is raw, it has been mentioned in the GSE's metadata. And that this array is Spotted Oligonucleotide not Affy, I don't know that the affy package can normalize it or not!
