The comparison of the spectra can be done either in relation to standards present in the laboratory or in relation to the databases. For example, we perform analyzes of amino acids, fatty acids, sterols ...
Then by statistical analysis, we note the m/z ratios of interest that can be broken down into MS2 for more information. Thanks to the correlation of the spectra with our standards present in the laboratory, the databases or with the exact masses, we can respectively determine a structure, propose a supposed structure or finally propose a rough formula. Optimization of the operating modes for your specific matrix.
Types of sample
Here are the different types of samples the platform can process:
Amino Acid, Fatty Acid, Sterol, Oxylipin...
0.8 to 1.2 mg are needed for animal tissues
1.5 to 1.8 mg for other source
