Mass Spectra
Mass spectra are the graphical representation of how molecules of a given sample interact with and are affected by a mass spectrometer. Mass spectra provide valuable insight into the chemical composition and structure of a sample as well as its isotopic abundances and exact mass. Mass spectra are used in a variety of fields, such as clinical diagnostics, forensic analysis, environmental assessment, and drug discovery. Mass spectra are important tools in identifying unknown compounds, confirming the composition of known compounds, and quantifying the abundance of particular compounds in a given sample.
