tools for high resolution mass spectrometry

Search for a known compound

Any organic compound analyzed in a mass spectrometer is likely to be recorded in the PubChem substance database. The MZanswers search tool interrogates the database for formulas matching the detected mass/charge of a ion, within an allowed mass range. The resulting formulas are ranked by a score and each formula is linked to matching PubChem substances, with details of structures and common names.
