MS Integration

The Integration tab shows Integration Table for detectors' signals, and is the same as in standard Clarity. This table is for integration of standard signals coming from detectors, serving as Result Table Signal.

The MS Integration tab shows Integration Table for compound's quantification signals, the most important signals for evaluating the peaks in the MS-MS Extension. The Integration Table is unique for each quantification signal. When more compounds use the same quantification signal, such signal is shared among them. For example, having compound A and compound B quantified on the same m/z value of the same spectral data means that changing Integration Table for one of them including the usage of local parameters (such as Peak - Start) results in the changes visible while the integration table is displayed for the second one as well.

Some Integration Table items, when added into the table, are common for all quantification signals, while some are specific for each particular quantification signal, and some are even missing on the quantification signal. The items common to all signals, those specific for each quantification signal and items missing are listed in following table:

Integration Table items

Table items common to all signals	Table items specific for each quantification signal	Table items not available on quantification signal

This information is important in understanding which parameters can be changed just for one quantification signal and which will influence all quantification signals.
