Evaluation and Quality Control

  • Each spectrum critically examined by experienced mass spectrometrists.
  • Each chemical structure examined for correctness and consistency, using both human and computer methods.
  • Spectra of all stereoisomers intercompared.
  • Chemical names examined by experts and IUPAC names provided.
  • Thousands of replacements of the best spectrum of a compound with a higher quality spectrum.
  • Verified CAS registry numbers.

This library is available with Version 2.0d of the full-featured NIST MS Search Program for Windows, which also includes integrated tools for:

  • GC/MS deconvolution (new version 2.6)
  • MS Interpretation (new version 2.0; thermodynamics-based interpretation of fragmentation)
  • Chemical Substructure Analysis

Available Separately
An Automated MS Deconvolution and Identification System (AMDIS)

This program extracts the spectrum of each component in a mixture analyzed by GC/MS and identifies target compounds. With the support of the Defense Special Weapons Agency (DOD), it was developed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for the critical task of verifying a major international treaty, the Chemical Weapons Convention. After two years of development and extensive testing it has been made available to the general analytical chemistry community.
