Abstract: Computer implemented systems and methods are disclosed for importing data from electronic data files. In accordance with some embodiments, a file format is assigned to a source electronic data files by a data importation system. The data importation system may further identify a file type identifier associated with the source electronic data file and map the source electronic data file to a transformation template. The data importation system may further store the file format, file type identifier, and an indication of the transformation template as a file type profile associated with the source electronic data file in a database.

Abstract: A method and apparatus introduces a secondary spray of uncharged liquid droplets into a primary stream of electrosprayed droplets. Droplets and/or components dissolved in the secondary liquid become charged through interaction with the primary electrospray stream. This results in formation of gaseous ions of the secondary solution susceptible to electrospray ionization. The secondary solution may consist of a mixture of calibration or reference mass standards. Using pulsed gas nebulization, the secondary spray is pulsed into the primary electrospray spray stream at intervals synchronized with the data collection system. In a second embodiment, the device may consist of a plurality of secondary sprayers for multiplexed sample introduction. Each of the secondary sprayers are pulsed at different intervals synchronized with data collection.
