It takes the right software tools to turn raw data into useful information. Agilent offers an array of tools to help you make sense of your MS
n data.
Simplified results navigation
Automated MSn analyses can generate massive amounts of multigenerational MS data. The 6300 Series ion trap software simplifies this by storing all data from a run in a single file. A familiar, hierarchical tree structure makes for easy navigation and location of exactly the data you need. Special filters help you extract specific subsets of data quickly.
Find compounds automatically
The Find Compounds functions provide powerful, compound-based data mining and data browsing for complex LC/MSn experiments. Find Compounds will:
- Locate all unique MSn experiments
- Generate compound entries and MS2 total ion chromatograms for each unique MS precursor ion
- Extract, average, and hierarchically organize all related MS and MSn spectra by compound entry
Functions are also available to automatically generate averaged mass spectra for all integrated chromatographic peaks in MS-only or manual MSn experiments.
Results can be reviewed, printed, and saved for archiving or further processing.
Extract the most information from every sample
ACD/SpecManager software from Advanced Chemistry Development helps you extract the maximum information from your MS data. The MS Processor module offers advanced features such as:
- COmponent Detection Algorithm (CODA) to simplify the interpretation of data by reducing random noise and high background
- ChemSketch, the industry-standard tool for drawing chemical structures
- Tools to simplify the addition and subtraction of spectra
- Tools to store processed chromatograms and spectra and generate reports
- Correlation tools to assist with MS inter-pretation by correlating structures and MS spectra
The SpecManager software also provides support for cross-technique as well as cross-vendor-platform multispectral data integration including NMR, MS, UV-Vis and IR.
Faster, easier quantitation
Powerful 6300 Series ion trap quantitation software has three simple views:
- Work Table
- Chromatogram/Spectra
- Calibration Curve
that are dynamically linked. A change made in one is automatically reflected in the others. The customizable work table provides a single point of focus where the user both sets up quantitation and views results.
Quickly identify and characterize proteins
Agilent's Spectrum Mill for MassHunter Workstation provides a comprehensive suite of software tools for processing MS and MS/MS data, determining protein identities and expression levels, and creating meaningful cross-sample and cross-experiment results summaries. Capabilities include:
- MS/MS spectral extraction and quality assessment tools to eliminate noise and poor-quality data from database searches
- Support for analyses from multiple instrument types in multiple data formats
- Database searching of either MS or MS/MS data with identification of mutations, post-translational modifications (PTMs), and chemical modifications
- Automatic and interactive results validation and re-searching using alternate parameters, modes (identity, homology, homology with PTMs), or databases
- Mass-based, semiquantitative analysis for first-order expression-level comparisons and also support for full ICAT quantitation
- Cross-experiment results summaries
- De novo sequencing of peptides from proteins not present in databases
