View source: R/accessory_functions.R

Description

findNL is used to find spectra that contain a specific neutral loss. Its sister function is findFragment, which finds specific fragment ions. Both functions work analogous to getSpectrum.

Usage

1
findNL(featlist, mz, tolerance = 1e-05)

Arguments

featlist

a list that contains only objects of class MS2spectrum

mz

The mass-to-charge ratio of the neutral loss of interest.

tolerance

The m/z tolerance for the neutral loss search. Default is 1E-05, i.e. +/- 10ppm.

Value

If the respective neutral loss is only found in one spectrum, the output is an object of class MS2spectrum; if it is found in more than one spectrum, the output is a list of MS2spectrum objects.
