Experimental mass measurement and empirical formula calculation for quercetin glycosides and dihydrochalcone. A good agreement between the theoretical and the experimental m/z values was obtained for all compounds examined (<5 ppm). Separations were performed on an 1100 LC system coupled to an ESI-MSD-TOF mass spectrometer (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA).
