Abstract: A two-dimensional chromatogram creator creates a two-dimensional chromatogram based on data collected by a comprehensive two-dimensional GC/MS analysis. An extraction condition conformity determiner determines whether or not each MS/MS spectrum obtained through the analysis conforms to a compound extraction condition previously stored in a storage section, such as the presence of a specific peak on the MS/MS spectrum. Each spectrum which conforms to the condition is extracted. This spectrum is most likely to reflect a partial structure of a compound in which an analysis operator is interested. Accordingly, a condition conformity information superposing displayer displays a marker whose appearance varies according to the compound extraction condition, at a position corresponding to the retention time of the extracted spectrum on the two-dimensional chromatogram.

Abstract: The present invention relates to aluminum plated steel sheet which does not require coating after plating and is high in production flexibility enabling application of conventional production processes as they are or exhibits excellent corrosion resistance to flex fuels and further is excellent in appearance and to fuel tanks characterized by being produced using the steel sheet. The Si, Mg, Ca, and Ti ingredients in the aluminum plating layer are defined and the cooling method after hot dip aluminum coating is controlled to make Mg2Si particles with a long axis of 10 ?m or less and an aspect ratio of 1 to 3 finely disperse in the plating layer. Due to the Mg2Si particles, it is possible to give an excellent corrosion resistance to flex fuels and suppress the deterioration in appearance due to MgO.

Abstract: In conducting multiple repetitions of MS/MS analysis on the same test sample for which a precursor ion whose m/z is known (m/z=M) has been established, MS/MS analysis is conducted under a dissociation condition in which CID is less prone to occur in part of the analysis. When an MS/MS spectrum is created by summing up spectral data thus obtained, a known precursor ion is observed at m/z=M without exception. Thus, a peak corresponding to the precursor ion is detected on the MS/MS spectrum, a mass deviation between an actual measured value and theoretical value M of m/z at the peak is determined, and a spectrum is created by correcting other peaks for mass shifts based on the mass deviation. This makes it possible to mass-calibrate the MS/MS spectrum in substantially the same manner as an internal standard method and improve mass accuracy over conventional methods.

Abstract: Data for a plurality of samples collected by an LC/MS, GC/MS or other systems are converted into a two-dimensional table format without losing information and with a light load, thereby allowing a multivariate analysis processing to be efficiently performed. After LC/MS data on a plurality of samples are obtained and the respective extracted ion chromatograms (XICs) are created (S1 and S2), the correction of the retention-time difference, the waveform processing and the like are performed (S3 and S4), followed by the creation of a one-dimensional table in which the signal-strength values are arranged for each XIC. Then, one-dimensional tables of a plurality of XICs for one sample are joined together in order of m/z value to create an elongate one-dimensional table (S5). The elongate one-dimensional tables of a plurality of samples are arranged in another dimensional direction to obtain a two-dimensional table (S6).

Abstract: From the data obtained by an LC/MS analysis in which an automatic MSn analysis is performed, all MS2 spectrum data are collected (S1), and a data matrix is created whose elements are peak intensity data with different precursor ions being arrayed in the horizontal direction and the mass-to-charge ratio of the product ions in the vertical direction (S2). By using the data in this data matrix, the correlation coefficients between two precursor ions are computed to create a correlation coefficient matrix (S3). In the correlation coefficient matrix, the diagonal elements whose value is “1” are all replaced by “0” to create an adjacency matrix (S4). A network analysis is performed for the adjacency matrix to create a network map showing the correlations among different precursor ions (MS2spectra) (S5).

Abstract: A sample solution containing a sample component is sprayed onto an atmosphere at atmospheric approximately pressure while being applied with electric charge from the tip of a nozzle (1). A sample molecule is released as an ion in a process where charged minute liquid droplets collide with an atmospheric gas and are broken apart, and a solvent is vaporized from the respective liquid droplets. A reflectron (7) in the shape of a half-cut spheroid is arranged in such a manner that a second focal point (F2) is positioned in front of an ion-introducing portion (4) in the spray flow. A discharge electrode (8) is disposed in a position at a first focal point (F1) of the reflectron (7). When pulsed high voltage is applied to the discharge electrode (8), an electric discharge occurs, causing shock waves to be generated. The shock waves reflected on the reflectron (7) are converged on the second focal point (F2).
