Protein Analysis via LC/CMS with Automated Charge State Deconvolution

 

The Advion deconvolution algorithm employs a combination of predictive charge envelope generation, overlap calculation with actual MS data acquired utilizing a maximum entropy goodness of fit approach followed by artifact removal through determination of peak significance. This novel approach allows for a rapid deconvolution over a wide mass range in seconds. It also allows a neutral mass output where the absolute signal intensity is directly correlated to the MS raw data signal intensity and analyte concentration in solution.
