This document introduces the method of metabolite identification, including software and instrument equipment
This document details the use of ACD Labs MS Manager Suite Version 8.0 in conjunction with an Agilent 1100 Series LC/MSD Trap XCT Plus ion trap mass spectrometer for metabolite identification studies.
The text outlines a workflow involving data import from multiple instruments, automatic comparison of control and sample data using the CODA algorithm, and structural analysis via ChemSketch. It also covers in-silico fragmentation modeling to assign structural features to mass spectral peaks.
The suite includes MS Manager, ChroManager, UVIR Manager, MS Fragmenter, ChemSketch, SpecDB, ChemFolder, ChemBasic, HNMR Viewer, and CNMR Viewer.
The data was acquired using an Agilent LC/MS system consisting of an Agilent 1100 Series solvent degasser, binary pump, well plate sampler, thermostatted column compartment, and an Agilent 1100 Series LC/MSD XCT Plus ion trap mass spectrometer.
