Wiley-Blackwell, the scientific, technical, medical, and scholarly publishing business of John Wiley & Sons, Inc., US, has announced the publication of the Wiley Registry 8th Edition /NIST 2008 Mass Spectral Library, the latest update of the two most trusted collections in mass spectrometry. Featuring over 560,000 spectra, over 348,000 spectra with chemical structures, and over 2 million chemical names and synonyms, the Wiley Registry 8th Edition/NIST 2008 Mass Spectral Library claims to be one of the most comprehensive mass spectral libraries ever published.
The Wiley Registry 8th Edition/NIST 2008 combines the two most trusted collections in mass spectrometry to provide one of the most comprehensive and chemically diverse libraries ever available. Now, with the complete NIST software package bundled with every license, the Wiley/NIST provides the tools every lab needs for applications ranging from compound identification to metabolomics.
Its featured libraries include EI-MS library with over 562,000 spectra; structure library with over 348,000 searchable structures; over 2 million common and systematic chemical names and synonyms; MS/MS library with over 14,400 spectra; GC Retention Index Library with and over 43,000 entries; full NIST 2008 software suite including MS Search and AMDIS; full NIST 2008 database installation, including Main, Rep Lib, Salts, MS/MS; and multi-format support: native NIST, Agilent, Shimadzu, PerkinElmer, and Waters installations. Comprehensive coverage includes small-molecule organics, pharmaceuticals, illegal drugs, poisons, pesticides, steroids, natural products, organic and inorganic compounds, chemical warfare agents, and environmental pollutants.
Wiley recommends this collection as the base library for critical applications ranging from toxicology and forensics to industrial quality assurance and deformulation.
