Spectrum Search

You can search a single spectrum against the MassBank database to find similar spectra.

    The MassBank Spectrum Search dialog appears.

  2. Edit the values for [Tolerance Unit], [Tolerance], [Cutoff], [Ion Mode] and [Max Number of Results]. Click [Instruments] to edit the instrument list.

  3. Click the [Search] button.

    It might take several seconds to search the database. After that, the MassBank Spectrum Search Results pane (Refer to the section called gSearch Resultsh) containing the hit spectra is displayed.
