Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007065266A1] Improved systems, apparatus, methods, and programming useful for the automated analysis of complex compounds using mass spectrometers. Systems, apparatus, methods, and programming according to the invention provide for the automatic determination by a controller (54) of a mass spectrometer (14, 214) of an analysis operation to be implemented using the mass spectrometer, the analysis operation adapted specifically for analysis of one or more substances based contained within a compound based on identification of the compound and/or substances provided by a user of the spectrometer, and a database (66) or other library of information concerning suitable processes or process steps for analyzing substances.
