NIST-validated mass spectrometry reference spectra. Standard compounds for metabolomics and environmental chemistry, including PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) detection reference compounds.

What’s Possible

  • Spectral matching for PFAS detection in environmental samples (wetSpring environmental chemistry pipeline)
  • Cross-reference with PubChem for compound identification from unknown spectra
  • Feed sovereign environmental monitoring workflows
