• Each spectrum critically examined by experienced mass spectrometrists
  

NIST '02 is a fully evaluated collection of electron-ionization mass spectra. It is the product of a 15-year effort by a team of experienced mass spectrometrists in which each spectrum was examined for correctness. This has led to thousands of selections, deletions and modifications to produce an optimal reference library of compound identification by spectrum matching and library searching. All decisions required agreement by two evaluators, as described in presentations at major conferences.

A 35% increase in coverage was accomplished primarily by the addition of complete, high-quality spectra either measured specifically for the library or taken from major practical collections.

This library of data is widely licensed in the mass spectrometers of many commercial instrument manufacturers.
