  • Method of mass spectrometry and a mass spectrometer
    Patent number: 10153145
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of mass spectrometry, an apparatus adapted to perform the method and a mass spectrometer. More particularly, but not exclusively, the present invention relates to a method of mass spectrometry comprising the step of associating parent and fragmentation ions from a sample by measuring the parent and fragmentation ions from two or more different areas of the sample and identifying changes in the number of parent ions between the areas in the sample, and corresponding changes in the number of fragmentation ions between the two areas.
    Type: Grant

  • METHOD FOR THE INVESTIGATION OF DIFFERENCES IN ANALYTICAL DATA AND AN APPARATUS ADAPTED TO PERFORM SUCH A METHOD
    Publication number: 20150120212
    Abstract: A method of investigating differences in data produced by at least one analytical instrument comprising providing a first data set from a first sample in a plurality of data bins; providing a second data set from a second sample in a plurality of data bins; providing a data model of said data sets in which the data in a plurality of data bins from the first data set is linked to the data in the corresponding bins of the second data set, each linked pair having an associated switch parameter linking the two together; and, exploring the posterior probability distribution for the data model as a function of the switch parameters to produce a posterior probability distribution map.
