Abstract: A technique for automatically analyzing mass spectrographic data from mixtures of chemical compounds has a series of screens designed to eliminate or reduce incorrect peak identifications due to background noise, system resolution, system contamination, multiply charged ions and isotope substitutions. With such a technique, mass spectrograph data analysis may be greatly simplified by the identification of probable spurious signals, and analysis will become simpler and more accurate.

Abstract: A technique for automatically analyzing mass spectrographic data from mixtures of chemical compounds is described consisting a series of screens designed to eliminate or reduce incorrect peak identifications due to background noise, system resolution, system contamination, multiply charged ions and isotope substitutions. The technique performs a mass spectrum operation on a control sample, producing a first group of output values. Next, perform a mass spectrographic operation on a sample to be analyzed, producing a second group of output values. Select a first m/z ratio for a material expected to be present in the mixture from a predetermined library of calculated mass spectrometer output spectrums and subtract the value of the control sample at the expected output value from the value of the analyzed sample, and compare the difference to a predetermined value.
