ticQuartersRtFraction: TIC quarters RT fraction (MS:4000054)

TIC quarters RT fraction (MS:4000054)

Description

MS:4000054 "The interval when the respective quarter of the TIC accumulates divided by retention time duration." [PSI:MS]

The metric is calculated as follows:
(1) the Spectra object is ordered according to the retention time,
(2) the cumulative sum of the ion count is calculated (TIC),
(3) the quantiles are calculated according to the probs argument, e.g. when probs is set to c(0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) the 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% quantile is calculated,
(4) the retention time/relative retention time (retention time divided by the total run time taking into account the minimum retention time) is calculated,
(5) the (relative) duration of the LC run after which the cumulative TIC exceeds (for the first time) the respective quantile of the cumulative TIC is calculated and returned.

Usage

ticQuartersRtFraction(
  spectra,
  probs = seq(0, 1, 0.25),
  msLevel = 1L,
  relative = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

spectra	Spectra object
probs	numeric defining the quantiles. See probs = seq(0, 1, 0.25).
msLevel	integer
relative	logical, if set to TRUE the relative retention time will be returned instead of the abolute retention time
...	not used here
