AMDIS The Automatic Mass Spectral Deconvolution and Identification System (AMDIS) allows you to automatically find any of a set of target compounds in a gas chromatography/mass spectral (GC/MS) data file
The program first deconvolutes the GC/MS data file to find all of the separate components
Each of these components is then compared against a library of target compounds
The match factor between the target spectrum and the deconvoluted component spectrum is then reported, if it is above a user set value
AMDIS uses a library of mass spectra with or without retention indices to identify compounds in the data file
The program can be configured to build a retention index calibration file, to use the retention index data along with the mass spectral data or to work without reference to any
