Abstract
The invention generally relates to logical operations in mass spectrometry. The system comprising a mass spectrometer comprising one or more ion traps; and a central processing unit (CPU), and storage coupled to the CPU for storing instructions that when executed by the CPU cause the system to apply one or more scan functions to the one or more ion traps, the scan functions being combine together.
Claims21
A system comprising:
- a mass spectrometer comprising one or more ion traps;
- and
- a central processing unit (CPU), and storage coupled to the CPU for storing instructions that when executed by the CPU cause the system to apply one or more scan functions to the one or more ion traps in order to accomplish an operation selected from the group consisting of:
- TRUE/FALSE;
- AND, NOT . . . BUT, BUT NOT;
- LEFT/RIGHT PROJECTION;
- XOR;
- Or;
- NEITHER . . . NOR;
- and
- RIGHT/LEFT COMPLEMENTATION.
8 more elements
A system comprising:
- a mass spectrometer comprising a single ion trap;
- and
- a central processing unit (CPU), and storage coupled to the CPU for storing instructions that when executed by the CPU cause the system to apply a plurality of scan functions to the single ion trap in a manner that the single ion trap conducts ion analysis that is conducted in a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer, wherein the plurality of scan functions comprise an inverse Mathieu q scan and at least one additional scan function.
