Master Your Data to Get to the Answer, View Results with Ease and ConfidenceUsing TripleTOF® Technology and MasterView™ Software to Quickly Identify Unknown Compounds André Schreiber and David CoxAB SCIEX Concord, Ontario (Canada)OverviewHere we present results using a novel data processing approachto quickly and automatically identify unknown and unexpectedcompounds, such as residues and contaminants, in complexfood samples. The data analysis workflow combines non-targetpeak finding, sample-control-comparison, empirical formulafinding, MS/MS library searching, and ChemSpider searchcombined with MS/MS interpretation – and most of these stepsare automated, making data processing fast and easy for theuser. Food samples were prepared using a simple solventextraction or QuEChERS extraction and analyzed with reversedphase LC. High resolution and accurate mass MS and MS/MSinformation was collected in a single injection on AB SCIEXTripleTOF® 4600 and 5600 systems. Data were processed usingthe new MasterView™ software.IntroductionLC-MS/MS is a powerful analytical tool for the analysis of food residues and contaminants. In particular, triple quadrupole based mass analyzers are popular for targeted quantitation of hundreds of food contaminants in a single analysis because of their extra degree of selectivity and sensitivity when operated in Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) mode.Advancements in LC-MS/MS technology, including hybrid systems like triple quadruple linear ion trap (QTRAP®) and quadrupole-quadrupole Time-of-Flight (TripleTOF®), now provide the ability to perform both targeted and non-targeted screening in food samples on a routine basis. However, full scan chromatograms are very rich in information and contain easily thousands of ions from both chemical compounds present in the sample as well as from the sample matrix itself. Thus, powerful software tools are needed to explore the high resolution and accurate mass data generated to get answers and results from these complex data.MasterView™ software utilizes a powerful non-target peak finding algorithm to find chromatographic features. Sample-control-comparison was performed to separate matrix and sample-specific signals from true contaminations. Ions of interest were processed using automatic MS/MS library searching, empirical formula finding, and ChemSpider searching to tentatively identify the molecular formula and structure of the unknown compound. The accurate mass MS/MS information was utilized to reduce the number of potential formulae during the formula finding step and to compare the experimentalMS/MS pattern with a theoretical fragmentation pattern of structures proposed by ChemSpider.The new MasterView™ software offers an intuitive workflow to tentatively identify unexpected compounds in complex samples. The software allows quick processing, easy results review, and reporting.Experimental•Food samples from a local supermarket.

Sample-control-comparison is used to differentiate matrix and sample specific signals from true contaminations. High resolution and accurate mass MS andMS/MS data are used to automatically calculate matching molecular formulae. Formulae are searched against ChemSpider to find matching structures. The theoretical fragmentation pattern of these structures is automatically compared with the experimental MS/MS pattern to rank confidence in identification. In addition, all acquired MS/MS spectra are searched against available MS/MS spectral libraries to identify compounds present in these libraries. AB SCIEX offers true MS/MS spectral libraries for over 2500 compounds, including pesticides, toxins, pharmaceuticals, veterinary drugs, and drugs of abuse.Figure 1.Data analysis workflow for non-targeted screening inMasterView™ software, XIC are generated by a non-target peak findingalgorithms and sample-control-comparison is used to identify relevant chromatographic features, empirical formula finding, ChemSpidersearching and MS/MS information is used to tentatively identifycompoundsNon-Target Identification in MasterView™ Software1.Open data files and select contaminated and controlsample.Evaluation of TOF-MS (Formula Finder)Evaluation of TOF-MS/MS (Search)MS MS/MS TIC of Sample and ControlNon-T arget XIC Generation and Sample-Control-ComparisonSample ControlTICFormula C15H17N3OCl2üüMS/MSüControl sampleSample2.

Figure 3 and Table 1 illustrate that the number of formulae can be reduced from over 100 to a single match by not only using the accurate mass of the molecular ion but also including isotope pattern matching and MS/MS evaluation. The formula finding algorithm also checks for possible adducts to predict the correct molecular formula of the uncharged species.The molecular ion shown in Figure 2 was identified as anM+NH 4+ion based on the presence of 4 additional ions.Figure 3.

一种实验验证方法英文IntroductionExperimental verification is a crucial process in scientific research, as it provides empirical evidence to support or refute hypotheses. It allows researchers to test their ideas and theories in a controlled environment, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of natural phenomena. This article presents a method for conducting experimental verification, outlining the necessary steps and considerations for ensuring reliable and valid results.MethodologyStep 1: Formulate a HypothesisThe first step in experimental verification is to formulate a hypothesis. This involves proposing an explanation or a prediction about the relationship between variables. The hypothesis should be specific, testable, and should aim to answer a research question.Step 2: Design the ExperimentDesigning a well-structured experiment is vital to obtaining accurate and meaningful results. The experiment should be carefully planned, ensuring that all relevant variables are identified and controlled. Considerations such as sample size, experimental conditions, and data collection methods should be taken into account during this step.Step 3: Identify VariablesIdentifying and controlling variables is crucial to minimize confounding factors and ensure that the observed effects are due to the manipulated variables. Variables can be classified as independent, dependent, or controlled. Independent variables are manipulated by the researcher, dependent variables are the outcomes or the observed effects, and controlled variables are kept constant to prevent their influence on the results.Step 4: Conduct the ExperimentOnce the experiment has been designed and variables have been identified, it is time to conduct the experiment. Follow the established protocol, collecting relevant data and observations. Take into consideration the ethical guidelines and safety precautions to ensure the integrity of the experiment and the well-being of participants.Step 5: Analyze and Interpret the ResultsAfter data collection, it is important to analyze and interpret the obtained results. Statistical analysis methods can be employed to determine the significance of the observed effects. Consider factors such as margin of error, confidence intervals, and p-values to draw meaningful conclusions.Step 6: Draw ConclusionsBased on the results obtained, draw conclusions regarding the hypothesis. If the data supports the hypothesis, it provides evidence tovalidate the proposed explanation. However, if the data contradicts the hypothesis, it suggests a revision of the initial hypothesis or the formulation of a new one. Ensure that the conclusions are based on sound scientific reasoning and are supported by the empirical evidence obtained from the experiment.Considerations and Potential Challenges- Sample size: Ensure that the sample size is sufficient to achieve statistical power and accurately capture the effects of variables.- Control group: Create a control group to serve as a basis of comparison, allowing the evaluation of the impact of the independent variable.- Replicability: Conduct the experiment multiple times to ensure the reliability of the results. Replicability adds strength to the validity of the findings.- Ethical considerations: Adhere to ethical guidelines and obtain necessary consent from participants to maintain the ethical integrity of the experiment.- External validity: Consider the generalizability of the results to the broader population or other settings. It is important to acknowledge any limitations or potential biases that might affect the external validity. ConclusionExperimental verification is a foundational aspect of scientific research. By following the outlined methodology and taking into account theconsiderations and potential challenges, researchers can conduct experiments that generate reliable and valid results. Through rigorous experimentation, scientists are able to advance knowledge, inspire further research, and make important contributions to their respective fields.。

下⾯是yjbys⼩编为⼤家带来的新视野4：Unit1 Text B (课⽂+译⽂)，欢迎阅读。

Why do smart people do dumb things? 聪明的⼈为何会做蠢事? 1.Orthodox views prize intelligence and intellectual rigor highly in the modern realm of universities and tech industry jobs. One of the underlying assumptions of this value system is that smart people,by virtue of what they’ve learned,will formulate better decisions.Often this is true.Yet psychologists who study human decision-making processes have uncovered cognitive biases common to all people,regardless of intelligence,that can lead to poor decisions in experts and laymen alike. 1.传统观念将智⼒和思维的缜密性看作现在⼤学领悟和科技产业⼯作的重要素质。

这⼀价值体系所隐含的前提是，聪明⼈借助⾃⼰的学识会做出更⾼明的决定。

在⼤多数情况下，的确如此。

但是，研究⼈类决策过程的⼼理学家们却发现了每个⼈⾝上都常见的“认知偏差”。

不管智⼒⽔平如何，这些认知偏差都会引导们作出错误的决定，不论他们是专家还是门外汉。

2.Thankfully these biases can be avoided.Understanding how and in what situations they occur can give you an awareness of your own limitations and allow you to factor them into your decision-making. 2.好在这些偏差是可以避免的。
