Questions answered in these manuals
What modes does the Agilent 6540 operate in for this study?
The system was operated in an initial MS-only mode at 5 Hz acquisition rate and an automatic MS/MS mode with expected metabolites on the inclusion list.
How does the Agilent 6540 compare to the Triple Quadrupole system?
The quantitative data obtained using the 6540 QTOF showed good correlation with analysis performed on the Agilent 6460 Triple Quadrupole LC/MS System.
What is the mass error in MS mode for the example compound?
The mass error was only 0.33 ppm.
What is the MS/MS mass accuracy above m/z 100?
The MS/MS mass accuracy is better than 2 ppm.
