Development of a Spectrum Library of Endocrine Disruptors by LCMS-IT-TOF

Endocrine disruptors upset the hormone balance in organisms by binding to hormone receptors and causing damage or harmful effects to the organism. The effects of chemical substances that bind to female hormone (estrogen) receptors to the organism are of particular concern, and the need to analyze for these kinds of chemical substances has increased in recent years.
This Technical Report describes a spectral library of endocrine disruptors with estrogenic activity that has been developed using the LCMS-IT-TOF mass spectrometer, which is capable of accurate mass MSn measurements.
