Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for analyzing a sample using overlapping precursor isolation windows. A mass analyzer of a tandem mass spectrometer is instructed to select and fragment at least two overlapping precursor isolation windows across a precursor ion mass range of a sample using a processor. The tandem mass spectrometer includes a mass analyzer that allows overlapping precursor isolation windows across the mass range of the sample.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for detecting compounds in a sample using a tandem mass spectrometer. A sample comprising a plurality of detectable compounds that have been separated in time over a time interval is introduced into a tandem mass spectrometer. A sample product ion spectra is obtained. The presence of one or more known compounds of interest in the sample product ion spectra is determined. A compound is identified as present in the sample if the score associated with said compound meets a threshold value set as indicative of the likely presence of the compound in the sample.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying detectable compounds of a sample. Sample product ion spectra are received for each mass selection window of precursor mass selection windows for each time step. The received sample product ion spectra are searched for the presence of known compounds of interest with known product ion spectra by retrieving a known product ion spectrum from a library, retrieving the sample product ion spectra corresponding to the precursor mass selection window expected to contain a precursor ion corresponding to the known product ion spectrum, generating product ion traces in time for the retrieved sample product ion spectra, calculating a score for the product ion traces and the retrieved sample product ion spectra that represents how well the retrieved sample product ion spectra and the known product ion spectrum match, and confirming the identity of a precursor ion using the score.

Abstract: Systems and methods are used to store an electronic record of all product ion spectra of all detectable compounds of a sample. A plurality of product ion scans are performed on a tandem mass spectrometer one or more times in a single sample analysis across a mass range using a plurality of mass selection windows. All sample product ion spectra of all detectable compounds for each mass selection window are produced. All sample product ion spectra for each mass selection window are received from the tandem mass spectrometer using a processor. All sample product ion spectra for each mass selection window are stored as an electronic record of all detectable compounds of the sample using the processor. The electronic record is used to characterize compounds known at the time the electronic record is stored or to characterize compounds that became known after the electronic record was stored.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the determination of an MRM or SRM assay for a protein of interest, a peptide of interest, or a group of proteins/peptides of interest or a whole proteome. It essentially includes the following steps: (1) a list of proteins of interest is selected and for each member at least one or a list of candidate proteotypic peptides is derived (2) this at least one peptide is synthesized/generated essentially without subsequent purification; (3) this at least one unpurified peptide is analyzed by selected reaction monitoring (SRM) preferably coupled to liquid chromatography (LC-SRM) or analogous techniques; (4) validation and/or optimisation of the corresponding assay of the at least one peptide with determination of the SRM coordinates for a peptide/protein of interest and/or of a regulator of interest is achieved.
