Synchronized Integration - remove peak issue halwaseem  2022-04-14 09:38
 

Firstly I have to say I LOVE the synchronized integration feature. It has reduced peak picking time tremendously!!!

I have been having this issue with all of my integrated peaks being removed when I click "remove peak" for a sample that was NOT checked under synchronized integration. I usually select all of my biological samples for synchronized integration and leave out neat standards (QC std) because I only use them for RT reference (peak areas too high in comparison to bio samples so I don't want to integrate them). Because I have explicit RT's in my transition list, the QC stds always end up getting integrated. When I click on remove peak for any QC std, this is applied to all of my samples. This happens when I have all my bio samples selected and NONE of the QC std files selected under the synchronize integration option.

I am able to get around this by unselecting all the samples, selecting the QC std files and then clicking remove peak. This only removes peaks that were selected and so I am able to selectively remove all the QC stds. I can then go back and select all my bio samples and integrate them. This is a quick thing to do with a short list of metabolites but with >100 transitions, it adds up.

Is there a way to selectively remove peaks of samples that are not checked under synchronized integration?

Notes: I am using the latest version of Skyline Daily but have had this "issue" with previous versions. I am using the molecule interface mode. This is not specific to certain raw files or transition lists. I do not have my samples grouped.

Thank you for you help!

You are right, this behavior should be changed for samples not selected for synchronized integration. It will be fixed for the next version.

Thanks,
Kaipo
