What other MS techniques can the NIST02 EI spectra be used with?
Most data come from quadropole mass spectromteters. 1) Spectra measured on magnetic sector and TOF instruments can be searched against NIST02 with good results. 2) Searching with ion trap spectra can be productive but the results need to be considered thoughtfully. NIST compiled this table searching ion trap spectra of pesticides. You can see the results are compare well. Matrix sample GC/MS analysis with NIST98 match factors for quadropole and ion trap data quadropole ion trap anthracene-d10- 87 87 chlordane 78 87 chlorothalonil 95 92 chloropropham 95 94 chrysene-d12 87 79 dimethoate 83 72 diphenylamine 99 93 ethion 76 79 methidathion 95 82 methoxychlor 86 61, noisy data permethrin 91 75 o-phenylphenol 100 96 phosmet 84 co-elutes with trifluralin pirimiphos methyl 98 90 terbufos 98 85 trifluralin 94 90 Ion trap spectra of small molecules with oxygen, nitrogen, etc., require attention. Small heteratom molecules are known to produce mass spectra that differ between quadropole and ion tr
