Before we can process data, we need data. Here, we describe the different scan modes to acquire data:
Full scan data
data-dependent analysis (DDA)
data-independent analysis (DIA)
and iterative exclusion data-dependent analysis (IE-DDA)
We also talk about ideas for setting up a sequence and which file types are needed for our software platforms.
If your vendor does not support IE-DDA which is our recommended acquisition mode for LC-HRMS, you can find an open-source software here:
