Instructions for filling out the msConvert_File_Merger spreadsheet
i) Insert the current filenames for your individual mzML files into the 'input_filename' column. It is important to keep the '.mzml' tag on the end of the filename in this column. Take care to make sure the filenames in the spreadsheet under 'input_filename' match the filenames in your data folder.
ii) Type a new filename for replicate spectra you would like to combine into a single mzml file. You do NOT need to include the '.mzml' tag in this column. Make sure the 'output_filename' is identical for all replicate spectra you want to be merged. Otherwise the workflow will write files with different 'output_filename' entries as separate mzML files.
Navigating the msConvert_File_Merger workflow
This workflow will combine spectra from separate spots that correspond to the same bacterial strain (i.e. replicate spots). The output is a single mzML file (per strain) that contains the replicate spectra as separate scans.
i) Open the msConvert_File_Merger workflow.ii) Select your mzML files and your input/output spreadsheet from the dropdown menus.
iii) Select mzML or mzXML as your output data format.
iV) Submit workflow.
