Patent ID: 10121644

Abstract:
A mass spectrometer including an ionization source including an ESI probe (201), an ESI power source (24), a corona needle (202) and an APCI power source (24); an ionization condition storage section (41) for storing a plurality of ionization conditions related to the liquid sample, set by an analysis operator, with the ionization conditions differing from each other in the value of the ESI voltage or/and the value of the APCI voltage; a mass spectrometry executer (43) for conducting a mass spectrometry for an ion generated from the liquid sample using each of the plurality of ionization conditions; and a mass spectrometry result selector (44) for selecting, for each of the one or plurality of components, a mass spectrometry result in which the ion is detected with a suitable level of intensity for an analysis, from the mass spectrometry results respectively obtained for the plurality of ionization conditions.
