no TG nor DG in list #28

Hi! Thanks for this package. I am wondering if it can be true that neither triglycerides nor diglycerides is included in the lipid reference list, and hence cannot be analyzed?

Hi @jallebasi, Sorry for the late response. lipidr is completely agnostic to the lipid classes. This is determined by your dataset. As long as you names your lipid molecules using the convention CLS XX:YY, lipidr will automatically parse it and analyse it accordingly. Please refer to the vignette example here: https://www.lipidr.org/articles/examples/mw_integration.html where you'll find TGs and DGs included in the analysis.

Cheers, Ahmed.
