3. Select the mode for the analysis:
• Use the entire mass range—Calculates
average molecular weights using all peak
intensities within the X Display Range. It does
not distinguish between different polymeric
species that may be present in the mass
range.
Enter an adduct mass.

NOTE: If the predominant ion series is M+Na+, enter 23 for
the adduct ion. If the predominant ion series is M+Ag+,
enter 108 for the adduct ion. If you are analyzing an
unknown or a mixture, leave this field blank; the calculation
is performed without subtracting the adduct ion mass.
