The MS Lib Search Results window shows the results from the searched library.
The MS Lib Search Results window is visible only in the Chromatograms or Results layout. |
If your processing method uses a NIST version that is not installed on your system, the library search will return no results. In this case, add the libraries of the correct NIST version to your method. |
Click the column header to sort its listed items in ascending or descending order.
Compound Name | Compound name for the matched spectrum in the MS library. |
Match Score | NIST algorithm showing the matching between peak spectrum and library spectrum. For example, 878 can be read as 87.8 % match. The highest possible match score is 999. |
Reverse Match Score | Similar to Match Score. The value is calculated ignoring all peaks in the sample spectrum that are not in the library spectrum. |
Probability % |
NIST algorithm; probability for the selected compound to be the correct one, considering all matched compounds in the library. |
Library Name |
Name of the searched library. |
CAS # |
CAS registry number. |
NIST # |
NIST ID in the searched library. The values are specific to a compound and independent of the library. |
Library ID | Compound ID in the searched library. |
