When importing Agilent .D files is there a way to read the Sample Group information? cian monnin  2024-02-05 13:17
 

Hello Skyline Team!

When making a worklist on Agilent's Data Acquisition software there is a Sample Group column. Is there a way to import or populate a column with this information in Skyline? It's stored in the the sample_info.xml as

  <Field>
    <Name>SampleGroup</Name>
    <DisplayName>Sample Group</DisplayName>
    <Value>20x_MEF_NPRL2</Value>
    <DataType>8</DataType>
    <Units>
    </Units>
    <FieldType>SYSTEM</FieldType>
    <Overridden>False</Overridden>
  </Field>

Specifically the <Value>20x_MEF_NPRL2</Value> is of interest for us.

Thanks!

I think it should be possible to get that information into Skyline as a annotation on the replicate, yes.

I'll make a note in our development queue. If you could provide a Skyline document and sample .d file (use Skyline's File > Share menu item to create a tidy zip file with everything needed in it) that would be helpful.

Thanks for using the Skyline support board!

Hi, Brian!

That's great, thanks!

I'll send the .zip to your email.
