Exercise 3 – Create a Triggered Dynamic MRM acquisition
method
For this exercise you analyze a mixture of four sulfonamide compounds.
Task 1. Create a Triggered Dynamic MRM method from a Dynamic
MRM method manually
You can create a Triggered Dynamic MRM method directly from a Dynamic
MRM method. In a Triggered Dynamic MRM method, you specify some of the
transitions to be primary transitions. These transitions are acquired for the
entire retention time window. Some of these primary transitions are also
marked as triggers. As the data is acquired, the program checks whether or
not the abundances of the trigger transitions are higher than the threshold. If
the abundances are higher than the thresholds and other additional
conditions are met, then the secondary transitions are acquired. These other
conditions are described in the Concepts Guide.
