Abstract
A method for analyzing chemical species and determining the molecular weight of a parent molecule. Multiply charged ions are produced from the parent molecule by adding adduct ions thereto. A mass analysis is conducted of the multiply charged ions to generate mass/charge data. The molecular weight is calculated by using a deconvolution procedure in which the adduct ion mass and the molecular weight of the parent molecule are both treated as unknowns. Alternatively, a modified deconvolution procedure in which the adduct ion mass is treated as a known value is used.
