Table 3.

Selected chemicals and screening results based on RT windows applied to RT predictions for the OPERA-RT and ACD/ChromGenius models. The percentage of search results screened out based on each formula search are presented along with whether or not the known chemical was kept within the RT window (Y/N). Only those chemicals with 10 candidate chemical results (see RT Prediction for Structure Identification) are included below for accurate representation of percentages (n=12). Total chromatographic run time was 45 minutes.
