Mass Spectral Libraries - Reproducibility in EI, API and Tandem Mass Spectrometry Mass Spectral Libraries - Reproducibility in EI, API and Tandem Mass Spectrometry
A number of publications have recently appeared in which attempts have been made to determine the reproducibility of tandem mass spectra libraries. For several decades libraries of EI spectra have been used successfully for compound identification, especially from GC-MS data, while, in contrast, many difficulties seem to be present in trying to achieve the same success for tandem mass spectrometry data. This short essay attempts to answer the question of why this difference should occur, what is it about EI spectra which are so reproducible over a wide variety of instruments, laboratories and over long periods of time and what methods have been tried to improve the success rate of the latter.
