Abstract
Using the intensity ratio of peaks on a standard mass spectrum of the target compound and peaks with the same m/z on the measured mass spectrum near the retention time of said compound, a scale factor waveform close to the chromatogram shape based on the target compound alone is computed, and m/z candidates for quantitation are extracted based on the correlation between the measured mass chromatogram of the target compound and the scale factor waveform. Furthermore, an intensity ratio is determined with reference to the m/z peaks showing the greatest scale factor on the measured mass spectrum at the measurement time point showing the greatest scale factor in the scale factor waveform, and m/z candidates for quantitation/confirmation are narrowed down based on whether they fall within an allowable range based on peak intensity ratio on the standard mass spectrum.
