referenceRetentionTimeDetector {IDSL.IPA}

Reference retention time detector

Description

This module detects recurring reference peaks (m/z-RT) for retention time correction.

Usage

referenceRetentionTimeDetector(inputPathPeaklist, refPeaklistFileNames,
minFrequencyRefPeaks, massAccuracy, RTtolerance, number_processing_threads = 1)

Arguments

inputPathPeaklist

path to directory of peaklists.

refPeaklistFileNames

name of peaklists files to detect recurring reference peaks (m/z-RT).

minFrequencyRefPeaks

minimum frequency of the recurring reference peaks (m/z-RT) in the reference files.

massAccuracy

mass error to detect common peaks.

RTtolerance

retention time tolerance to detect common peaks.

number_processing_threads

number of processing threads

Value

referenceMZRTpeaks

a matrix of two columns of m/z and RT of common peaks in the reference samples.

listRefRT

a list of corrected or uncorrected retention times for each peaklist.
