Intended use of the ACQUITY RDa Detector
The ACQUITY RDa Detector is a time-of-flight mass detector with an ESI source, and is intended
for use as an analytical tool. It provides accurate mass data with minimal interaction from the
user. The LC/MS ESI instrument is not intended for use in diagnostic applications.
Calibrating
When calibrating mass spectrometers, consult the instrument's online Help system for calibration
instructions.
Quality control
Routinely run three QC samples that represent subnormal, normal, and above-normal levels of a
compound. If sample trays are the same or very similar, vary the location of the QC samples in
the trays. Ensure that QC sample results fall within an acceptable range, and evaluate precision
from day to day and run to run. Data collected when QC samples are out of range might not be
valid. Do not report these data until you are certain that the instrument performs satisfactorily.
