Peak Area Ratio missing (absolute quantification, small molecule application) MP  2018-04-12 12:12
 
Dear Skyline community,

I have performed a targeted analysis of a small molecule, including 13C internal standard.

After importing the results into skyline, transitions and peak areas for the small molecule analyte and 13C standard are properly assigned and calculated (MRM, centroid, Waters TQ).

However, the Peak Area ratios of "Analyte" / "13C internal standard" are not shown and give an error (missing values) in the calibration curve. Both transitions, analyte and internal standard (=heavy)) are assigned to the same small molecule (I followed the instruction from the absolute quantification application note, for peptides it works well)

Any help is highly appreciated.

Best regards.

Can you send us your Skyline document?

In Skyline you can use the menu item:
File > Share > (complete)
to create a .zip file containing your Skyline document and supporting files including extracted chromatograms.

If that .zip file is less than 50MB you can attach it to this support request.

Otherwise, you can upload it here:

Dear Nick,

Thanks for your fast response. I just noticed that the names in the transitions of "light" and "heavy" did not exactly match ("Fragment 1" vs "fragment 1"). Now they are same and it works.

Best regards,
Martin
