| pubmed-article:11497002 | pubmed:abstractText | An new program has been developed and implemented for data analysis of mass spectra obtained by use of the VG9000 glow-discharge mass spectrometer. The program, designed to run in a Windows 9X environment includes several tools for import and export of data, cluster generators, etc. An automated technique for the interpretation of mass spectra is also built into the program; this enables faster and operator-independent interpretation. When major interferences or not-well defined signals are involved, the automated technique might fail to find the correct result. Therefore, a manual, VG9000 software-like, bypass is at hand. A comparison of the different techniques and programs shows, in general, comparable results. An installable version of the software is available on the university FTP-server (ftp://PLASMA-FTP.uia.ac.be/ private/imsas/). | lld:pubmed |
