Add retention index information to an msp object

Description

Given an msp object and the retention times and indices of a series of reference compounds, the function adds an RI field to every entry of the msp object. This will only be done if there is not already an RI field: existing information will not be overwritten.

Usage

addRI(mspobj, RIstandards, isMSP = TRUE)

Arguments

mspobj

An msp object.

RIstandards

A two-column matrix containing for the standards defining the RI scale both retention times and retention indices.

isMSP

Logical: if TRUE, then the spectra are stored in slot pspectrum; otherwise the spectra are simply the list elements of DB - matrices with three columns.

Value

An msp object, now also containing an RI slot.

Note

If the retention time of a compound is outside the range of the RI standards, NA will be used as RI value.
