findNeutralLoss: Find pseudospectra that contains a specific neutral loss

Description Usage Arguments Details Author(s) Examples

View source: R/xsAnnotate.R

Description

The method searches in every pseudospectra for a distance between two ions matching a provided mass difference. It returns a xcmsSet object containing the matching peaks.

Usage

1
  findNeutralLoss(object, mzdiff=NULL, mzabs=0, mzppm=10)

Arguments

object

xsAnnotate object

mzdiff

neutral loss in Dalton

mzabs

absolut allowed mass difference

mzppm

relative allowed mass difference

Details

The function needs a xsAnnotate object after groupCorr or groupFWHM. The resulting object is a artificial xcmsSet, where the peaks with the specific neutral loss are stored in xcmsSet@peaks.
