New LC/MS and GC/MS deconvolution software makes confirming the presence of known compounds in messy samples faster and easier.

Toronto, Canada (June 1, 2009)—ACD/Labs announces the release of new software for target analysis of complicated LC/MS and GC/MS datasets, without the tedious and difficult manual interpretation. ACD/IntelliTarget quickly confirms the presence or absence of known compounds in your samples, even at low concentrations, or when obscured by the presence of other substances.

ACD/IntelliTarget quickly and accurately deconvolutes LC/MS and GC/MS data and presents a concise report indicating whether your compounds of interest are ‘Found’ or ‘Not Found’. Specify just one compound or a list of hundreds, either by formula or by monoisotopic mass. ACD/IntelliXtract then extracts and identifies the ionized molecule and adducts for each component, even when compounds are present at low concentration, or co-eluting with other species. ACD/IntelliTarget is an essential tool to ease the workload of experienced spectroscopists, and for inexperienced users who may find the manual interpretation of data to be overwhelming.

ACD/IntelliTarget is intended for screening, monitoring, and focusing analytical efforts in many fields of study, including forensic science, environmental monitoring, water analysis, food safety, and drug discovery. It is compatible with data formats of most major instrument vendors, and can be automated to screen larger batches of samples, or to monitor samples on-the-fly.

Gain further insight into the composition of your sample by applying ACD/IntelliTarget in combination with ACD/IntelliXtract to extract unknown components as well as those you expect to find.
