When you use the function safeMatfile
from the mzDataManager
class, it saves it's content to a .mat
file in the export directory. Here are the details on the structure created by this function in the exported file :
sample.mat
- sample (name of file without
.mat
)fileName
: From which file this data was extractedfilePath
: Where was located the filemetadata
- software
- analyser
- detector
mz
intensities
time
This is basically a copy of the mzData
class but all data is united inside one variable which is the file name. It makes easier the import part where you can keep track of all samples whithin their own variable with the same structure.
