Abstract
Methods of calibrating a mass spectrometer include: experimentally determining the mass to charge ratios of a plurality of chemical compounds in a reference standard using a mass spectrometer configured to scan ions at a first scan speed; experimentally determining the mass to charge ratios of said plurality of chemical compounds in said reference standard using a mass spectrometer configured to scan ions at a second scan speed; generating sets of data corresponding to each chemical compound, each set of data comprising the experimentally determined mass to charge ratios and the first and second scan speeds; interpolating from the sets of data mass to charge ratio for each chemical compound at a scan speed different from the first and second scan speeds; and constructing a calibration curve using the mass to charge ratios interpolated from the sets of data.
