NIST DART-MS Forensics Database (is-CID)

Metadata Updated: September 11, 2024

The NIST DART-MS Forensics Database is an evaluated collection of in-source collisionally-induced dissociation (is-CID) mass spectra of compounds of interest to the forensics community (e.g. seized drugs, cutting agents, etc.). The is-CID mass spectra were collected using Direct Analysis in Real-Time (DART) Mass Spectrometry (MS), either by NIST scientists or by contributing agencies noted per compound. The database is provided as a general-purpose structure data file (.SDF). For users on Windows operating systems, the .SDF format library can be converted to NIST MS Search format using Lib2NIST and then explored using NIST MS Search v2.4 for general mass spectral analysis. These software tools can be downloaded at https://chemdata.nist.gov. The database is now (09-28-2021) also provided in R data format (.RDS) for use with the R programming language.This database, also commonly referred to as a library, is one in a series of high-quality mass spectral libraries/databases produced by NIST (see NIST SRD 1a, https://dx.doi.org/10.18434/T4H594).
