I am not sure I understand what steps I would need to do to reproduce the problem that you are seeing.
If I would see the issue when importing results, can you attach your raw file? (I guess that would be the .wiff and the .wiff.scan)
If those files are less than 50MB, you can attach them to this support request.
Otherwise, you can upload them here:
https://skyline.ms/files.url
Or, would I see this problem when I export a transition list? What settings are you using when you export the transition list?

Hi Nick,
You can see this after data import. When you import the data optimizing CEs it basically changes the center CE at this point (from 18.7 -> 24.7 , you can see this in the results grid if you turn on "Opt Collision Energy"). When I tried to create an optimization library from results, it also takes the incorrect CE and thus affects the export of subsequent transition lists/methods when using optimization values.
I've attached the raw data (because we collect data as "nested" data files, please use the replicate labelled "xxxxx CE opt 2 m1").
Thanks very much for taking the time to look into this! |

When I import results from this .wiff file, the "Opt Collision Energy" in the new replicate ends up being blank (i.e. "#N/A").
Can you attach the .sky.zip for what you get after importing this replicate? I'll try to figure out what I'm doing different.

Hi Nick,
I've attached it post-import.
Thanks!

When Skyline reads chromatograms from a result file, Skyline does not know what collision energy was actually used.
Skyline just uses the equation from the collision energy predictor at:
Settings > Transition Settings > Prediction > Collision Energy
Skyline plugs the precursor m/z value into that equation, which is how it gets 24.7 as the collision energy for a precursor whose m/z is 438.7323++.
You have an optimization library "BAK270_CE_OPT_v1.optdb". You can see the values that are in there by going to:
Settings > Transition Settings > Prediction > Optimization Library > Edit Current
That library says that the collision energy for LYNPDVR++/y5+ is 18.65.
I do not believe that there is any way to see that number (the collision energy from the optimization library) in the Document Grid. However, I believe that if you were to export a method, that's the number that would be used.
(It looks like you might have typed in the number 18.65 as the "Explicit Collision Energy" for that transition in the Document Grid, and that's the number that would probably get used, but if you were to blank out the Explicit Collision Energy, then Skyline would use the value from the optimization library).
I am not an expert on CE optimization libraries, so I am not sure whether there is some step that should have been done differently.
Hope this helps,

Hi Nick, sorry for the delay in responding! That is exactly the issue, when I export a new transition list specifically for CE optimization it doesn't take the value from the optimization library, but rather 24.7 even though I have "use optimization values when present" selected in this case. |
