Re: [Psidev-ms-dev] mzML for GCxGC/MS ?

[Neumann, S. <sne...@ip...>]

Hi Chris (Taylor ?)

I think you overshoot a bit here, the raw data 
of 2D GCxGC (or LCxLC for that matter) will be stored 
by the MS instrument in a single file, therefore 
I think it is quite natural to keep it in one mzML file.

The only difference to 1D GC-MS (or LC-MS) is that 
the retention time observed by the MS instrument 
stems can be mapped back to 2D retention "positions" (?)
resulting from two individual (but coupled) GC separations.

So it comes down to the question how to store the 
information about re-mapping the retention time(s),
and that definitely has to be kept inside the mzML
because it must not get lost.

Yours,
Steffen
