When calibrating mass spectrometers, consult the calibration section of the
operator’s guide for the instrument you are calibrating. In cases where an
overview and maintenance guide, not operator’s guide, accompanies the
instrument, consult the instrument’s online Help system for calibration
instructions.
Quality control
Routinely run three quality-control samples that represent subnormal,
normal, and above-normal levels of a compound. Ensure that quality-control
sample results fall within an acceptable range, and evaluate precision from
day to day and run to run. Data collected when quality-control samples are
out of range might not be valid. Do not report these data until you are certain
that the instrument performs satisfactorily.
