ACD/Spectrus Processor—MS Capabilities
ACD/Spectrus Processor is a multi-technique analytical data processing and interpretation application that provides a number of capabilities specific to those working with mass spectrometry techniques (LC/UV/MS, GC/MS). Spectrus Processor provides a single common interface to process and interpret MS data, UV data, and data from any other associated detectors.
Processing & Interpretation
- Support for most instrument vendor formats, including AB SCIEX, Agilent, Bruker, LECO, PerkinElmer, Shimadzu, Thermo, Waters, and more
- Automate routine steps of analysis by selecting pre-processing upon data import
- Automatically confirm mass or molecular formula by the correspondence of mass spectral peaks
- Add a structure, formula, or mass to the Table of Components to automatically extract a relevant mass chromatogram
- Search peaks or a spectrum against a spectral library for fast compound identification
Assisted Chemical Structure Confirmation
Add a structure, an elemental composition, or a mass into the Table of Components to automatically extract a relevant mass chromatogram, or assign a peak
to generate a mass spectrum. Color-coded MS match categories (Excellent, Good, & Poor) indicate the consistency of monoisotopic and isotope peaks with the
experimental data, helping to confirm compound structures.
Spectral Library Searching
The ability to search and view processed and interpreted analytical data through Spectrus Processor extends knowledge-sharing to the desktop of every scientist.
Not only can you search commercial databases but also those created in-house. Processing and interpretation tools allow analytical data created and stored by
colleagues to be re-examined, to help answer new questions. Learn more 
Expand the compound identification capabilities of Spectrus Processor with 3rd party spectral libraries compatible
with ACD/Labs software.
LC/UV/MS Processing in Open-Access Laboratories
In open-access, or walk-up, environments, Spectrus Processor can combine "live" data processing with open-access report viewing for more confident compound confirmation.
