    Sample

    Select this option when you want to export the whole sample.

    Note:

    The target options you can select vary depending on the data currently opened.

    Format:

    Mascot Generic Format (*.txt)

    This format saves MS/MS peaks information for Mascot Ion Search. You have to perform peak detection before exporting to this format. (You can select this format when the target is "Current Spectrum", "Filtered Spectra" or "Sample".)

    Mass Spectrum Binary File (*.msb)

    Mass++ original binary format. Mass++ can read this format without requiring any additional software. (All targets can be saved in this format.)

    mzML File (*.mzML)

    A new data format for mass spectrometry. It is a combination of mzData and mzXML and was developed by the Proteomics Standards Initiative (PSI). (All targets can be saved in this format.)

    mzXML File (*.mzXML)

    An open data format for storage and exchange of mass spectroscopy data, developed at the SPC/Institute for Systems Biology. (All targets can be saved in this format.)

    2D Peak List (*.txt)

    This format saves peak information from the Heatmap/3D Display view. (You can select this format when the target is "Sample".)

    PNG File (Spectrum) (*.png)

    A spectrum image is saved in PNG format. (You can select this format when the target is "Current Spectrum".)

    PNG File (Chromatogram) (*.png)

    A chromatogram image is saved in PNG format. (You can select this format when the target is "Current Chromatogram".)

    Tab Separated Values File (*.txt)

    This format saves the m/z and intensity values of all the spectra in the sample. (You can select this format when the target is "Current Spectrum", "Filtered Spectra" or "Sample".)

    Note:

    The format options you can select vary depending on the target option you have selected.
