Abstract
Real-time search (RTS) for mass spectrometry is described. In one aspect, a mass spectrometer can identify a candidate peptide for a product ion spectrum by searching a mass spectral database. While executing the search of the mass spectral database, a candidate peptide score representing a confidence of a match between the product ion spectrum and a theoretical mass spectrum stored in the mass spectral database is generated. A failing score can be promoted to a passing result based on attributes of the candidate peptide.
