FIG. A mass spectrometry data processing apparatus 1 is configured by connecting a processor 2, a memory 3, a storage device 4, and a network adapter 5 via a system bus 6 so as to be able to transmit and receive signals. The mass spectrometry data processing device 1 is connected to a mass spectrometer 10 and a mass spectrometry database 11 via a network 9 so that signals can be sent and received, and a display device 7 and an input device 8 are also connected. Here, "capable of transmitting/receiving signals" indicates a state in which signals can be transmitted/received to/from each other or from one to the other electrically, optically, regardless of wired or wireless.
 プロセッサ2は、各構成要素の動作を制御したり、記憶装置4に格納されるプログラムを実行したりする装置である。メモリ3は、プロセッサ2が実行するプログラムや演算処理の途中経過を記憶するものである。記憶装置4は、プロセッサ2が実行するプログラムやプログラムの実行に必要なデータを格納する装置であり、具体的にはHDD(Hard Disk Drive)やSSD(Solid State Drive)等である。ネットワークアダプタ5は、質量分析データ処理装置1をLAN、電話回線、インターネット等のネットワーク9に接続するためのものである。プロセッサ2が扱う各種データはLAN(Local Area Network)等のネットワーク9を介して質量分析データ処理装置1の外部と送受信されても良い。 The processor 2 is a device that controls the operation of each component and executes programs stored in the storage device 4 . The memory 3 stores the program executed by the processor 2 and the progress of the arithmetic processing. The storage device 4 is a device that stores programs executed by the processor 2 and data necessary for executing the programs, and is specifically a HDD (Hard Disk Drive), SSD (Solid State Drive), or the like. The network adapter 5 is for connecting the mass spectrometry data processing apparatus 1 to a network 9 such as a LAN, telephone line, Internet, or the like. Various data handled by the processor 2 may be transmitted/received to/from the outside of the mass spectrometry data processing apparatus 1 via a network 9 such as a LAN (Local Area Network).

The input device 8 is an operation device for an operator to give an operation instruction to the mass spectrometry data processing apparatus 1, and is specifically a keyboard, a mouse, a touch panel, or the like. A pointing device such as a trackpad or trackball may be used instead of the mouse.
 質量分析装置10は、イオン化された試料成分を質量電荷比いわゆるm/z毎に分離して検出することでマススペクトルを得る装置である。質量分析データベース11は、質量分析装置10によって得られるマススペクトル等を記憶するデータベースシステムである。 The mass spectrometer 10 is a device that obtains a mass spectrum by separating and detecting ionized sample components by mass-to-charge ratio (m/z). The mass spectrometry database 11 is a database system that stores mass spectra and the like obtained by the mass spectrometer 10 .
 図2を用いてマススペクトルについて説明する。マススペクトルは、横軸に質量電荷比いわゆるm/z、縦軸に検出された強度をとったスペクトルである。ここでmはイオンの質量、zはイオンの電荷である。マススペクトルには、試料成分の分子構造に応じて、特定の質量電荷比においてピークが形成される。図2に例示されるマススペクトルでは、m/z=121が最大強度ピーク位置であり、最大強度ピーク位置以外にもm/z=188、132、214、117、144の位置にピークが形成される。 The mass spectrum will be explained using FIG. The mass spectrum is a spectrum in which the horizontal axis represents the mass-to-charge ratio, so-called m/z, and the vertical axis represents the detected intensity. where m is the mass of the ion and z is the charge of the ion. Mass spectra form peaks at specific mass-to-charge ratios, depending on the molecular structure of the sample components. In the mass spectrum illustrated in FIG. 2, m / z = 121 is the maximum intensity peak position, and peaks are formed at m / z = 188, 132, 214, 117, and 144 positions other than the maximum intensity peak position. be.
 試料の物質同定をする場合、最大強度ピーク位置が一致するマススペクトルに対応する物質が候補物質としてまず抽出される。しかし多数の候補物質が抽出されると、物質同定に多大な時間を要する。そこで実施例1では、最大強度ピーク位置以外のピーク位置での強度に基づいて算出される評価値を用いて、抽出された物質を候補物質とするか否かを判定する。 When identifying substances in a sample, substances corresponding to mass spectra with matching maximum intensity peak positions are first extracted as candidate substances. However, when a large number of candidate substances are extracted, substance identification takes a lot of time. Therefore, in Example 1, evaluation values calculated based on intensities at peak positions other than the maximum intensity peak position are used to determine whether or not an extracted substance is a candidate substance.
 図3を用いて実施例1の機能ブロック図について説明する。なお図3に示される各機能は、ASIC(Application Specific Integrated Circuit)やFPGA(Field-Programmable Gate Array)等が用いられる専用のハードウェアで構成されても良いし、プロセッサ2上で動作するソフトウェアで構成されても良い。以降の説明では実施例1の各機能がソフトウェアで構成された場合について説明する。 A functional block diagram of the first embodiment will be explained using FIG. It should be noted that each function shown in FIG. may be configured. In the following description, the case where each function of the first embodiment is configured by software will be described.
 実施例1は、取得部301、抽出部302、検索部303、設定部304、算出部305、判定部306を備える。また記憶装置4には、質量分析装置10で得られたマススペクトル等が記憶される。以下、各構成部について説明する。 Example 1 includes an acquisition unit 301 , an extraction unit 302 , a search unit 303 , a setting unit 304 , a calculation unit 305 and a determination unit 306 . The storage device 4 also stores mass spectra and the like obtained by the mass spectrometer 10 . Each component will be described below.
 取得部301は、試料のマススペクトルである試料スペクトルを取得する。試料スペクトルは、ネットワークアダプタ5を介して質量分析装置10や質量分析データベース11から送信されたり、記憶装置4から読み出されたりする。 The acquisition unit 301 acquires the sample spectrum, which is the mass spectrum of the sample. The sample spectrum is transmitted from the mass spectrometer 10 or the mass spectrometry database 11 via the network adapter 5 or read from the storage device 4 .
 抽出部302は、試料スペクトルの中から最大強度を示すピーク位置である最大強度ピーク位置を抽出する。試料スペクトルが図2に例示されるマススペクトルである場合、最大強度ピーク位置はm/z=121である。 The extraction unit 302 extracts the maximum intensity peak position, which is the peak position indicating the maximum intensity, from the sample spectrum. If the sample spectrum is the mass spectrum illustrated in FIG. 2, the maximum intensity peak position is m/z=121.
 検索部303は、抽出部302によって抽出された最大強度ピーク位置と同じピーク位置が最大強度であるマススペクトルを候補スペクトルとしてデータベースから検索する。試料スペクトルが図2に例示されるマススペクトルである場合、m/z=121が最大強度ピーク位置であるマススペクトルがデータベースから検索される。なおデータベースには、既知の物質のマススペクトルが物質の名称やIDと対応付けられて蓄積される。既知の物質のマススペクトルが蓄積されるデータベースは、記憶装置4や質量分析データベース11に予め格納される。 The search unit 303 searches the database for a mass spectrum having the maximum intensity at the same peak position as the maximum intensity peak position extracted by the extraction unit 302 as a candidate spectrum. If the sample spectrum is the mass spectrum illustrated in FIG. 2, the mass spectrum with m/z=121 being the maximum intensity peak position is retrieved from the database. In the database, mass spectra of known substances are stored in association with substance names and IDs. A database in which mass spectra of known substances are accumulated is pre-stored in the storage device 4 and the mass spectrometry database 11 .
 設定部304は、検索部303によって検索された候補スペクトルの最大強度ピーク位置以外のピーク位置を解析対象ピーク位置として設定する。図2に例示されるマススペクトルが候補スペクトルである場合、m/z=188、132、214、117、144が解析対象ピーク位置として設定される。 The setting unit 304 sets peak positions other than the maximum intensity peak positions of the candidate spectra searched by the search unit 303 as analysis target peak positions. When the mass spectrum illustrated in FIG. 2 is the candidate spectrum, m/z=188, 132, 214, 117, 144 are set as the peak positions to be analyzed.
 算出部305は、試料スペクトルの解析対象ピーク位置での強度に基づいて候補スペクトルに対する評価値を算出する。評価値の算出は図5A、図5Bを用いて後述する。 The calculation unit 305 calculates an evaluation value for the candidate spectrum based on the intensity at the analysis target peak position of the sample spectrum. Calculation of the evaluation value will be described later with reference to FIGS. 5A and 5B.
 判定部306は、算出部305によって算出された評価値を用いて候補スペクトルに対応する物質を候補物質とするか否かを判定する。例えば評価値が予め設定された閾値以上であれば候補スペクトルに対応する物質が候補物質とされ、評価値が閾値未満であれば候補スペクトルに対応する物質が候補物質から除外される。 The determination unit 306 uses the evaluation value calculated by the calculation unit 305 to determine whether or not the substance corresponding to the candidate spectrum is to be the candidate substance. For example, if the evaluation value is equal to or greater than a preset threshold, the substance corresponding to the candidate spectrum is determined as the candidate substance, and if the evaluation value is less than the threshold, the substance corresponding to the candidate spectrum is excluded from the candidate substances.
 図4を用いて、実施例1の処理の流れの一例についてステップ毎に説明する。 An example of the processing flow of the first embodiment will be explained step by step using FIG.
 (S401)
 取得部301は、記憶装置4から読み出したり、ネットワークアダプタ5を介して、質量分析データ処理装置1の外部から受信したりすることによって、試料のマススペクトルである試料スペクトルを取得する。
(S401)
The acquiring unit 301 acquires the sample spectrum, which is the mass spectrum of the sample, by reading from the storage device 4 or receiving from outside the mass spectrometry data processing apparatus 1 via the network adapter 5 .
 (S402)
 抽出部302は、S401で取得された試料スペクトルの最大強度ピーク位置を抽出する。
(S402)
The extraction unit 302 extracts the maximum intensity peak position of the sample spectrum acquired in S401.
 (S403)
 検索部303は、S402で抽出された最大強度ピーク位置と同じピーク位置が最大強度であるマススペクトルを、既知の物質のマススペクトルが蓄積されるデータベースから検索する。検索されたマススペクトルは候補スペクトルとして扱われる。
(S403)
The search unit 303 searches the database in which the mass spectra of known substances are accumulated for mass spectra having the maximum intensity at the same peak position as the maximum intensity peak position extracted in S402. The retrieved mass spectra are treated as candidate spectra.
 (S404)
 設定部304は、S403で検索された候補スペクトルの最大強度ピーク位置以外のピーク位置を解析対象ピーク位置として設定する。図5Aに例示される候補スペクトルでは、解析対象ピーク位置としてm/z=188、132、144が設定される。
(S404)
The setting unit 304 sets peak positions other than the maximum intensity peak position of the candidate spectrum searched in S403 as analysis target peak positions. In the candidate spectrum illustrated in FIG. 5A, m/z=188, 132, 144 are set as the peak positions to be analyzed.
 (S405)
 算出部305は、S401で取得された試料スペクトルから、S404で設定された解析対象ピーク位置での強度を取得し、取得された強度に基づいて、候補スペクトルに対する評価値を算出する。評価値は、例えば取得された強度の総和として算出される。例えば図5Aの候補スペクトルから解析対象ピーク位置としてm/z=188、132、144が設定された場合、図5Bに例示される試料スペクトルからm/z=188、132、144での各強度が取得される。そして取得された強度の総和が、図5Aの候補スペクトルに対する評価値として算出される。
(S405)
The calculation unit 305 acquires the intensity at the analysis target peak position set in S404 from the sample spectrum acquired in S401, and calculates an evaluation value for the candidate spectrum based on the acquired intensity. The evaluation value is calculated, for example, as the sum of the acquired intensities. For example, when m / z = 188, 132, 144 are set as the peak positions to be analyzed from the candidate spectrum of FIG. is obtained. Then, the sum of the acquired intensities is calculated as the evaluation value for the candidate spectrum in FIG. 5A.
 なお評価値は、取得された強度の総和に限定されない。解析対象ピーク位置でのピーク以外のピークが試料スペクトルに含まれる場合、候補スペクトルは試料スペクトルに対して偽陽性である可能性が高い。そこで、そのような場合は評価値が減点されるようにしても良い。具体的には、試料スペクトルの解析対象ピーク位置での強度の総和から、試料スペクトルの解析対象ピーク位置以外のピーク位置での強度の総和が減じられた値が評価値として算出される。図5Bに例示される試料スペクトルでは、解析対象ピーク位置であるm/z=188、132、144での各強度の総和から、解析対象ピーク位置以外のピーク位置であるm/z=135、214での各強度の総和が減じられた値が評価値として算出される。 Note that the evaluation value is not limited to the sum of the acquired strengths. If the sample spectrum contains peaks other than the peak at the analysis target peak position, the candidate spectrum is highly likely to be a false positive for the sample spectrum. Therefore, in such a case, the evaluation value may be deducted. Specifically, a value obtained by subtracting the sum of intensities at peak positions other than the analysis target peak position of the sample spectrum from the sum of the intensities at the analysis target peak positions of the sample spectrum is calculated as the evaluation value. In the sample spectrum exemplified in FIG. 5B, from the summation of each intensity at m / z = 188, 132, 144, which is the position of the peak to be analyzed, m / z = 135, 214, which is the peak position other than the peak position to be analyzed A value obtained by subtracting the sum of the respective intensities at , is calculated as an evaluation value.
 また試料スペクトルの解析対象ピーク位置での強度に重み係数が乗じられた値の総和が評価値として算出されても良い。重み係数は、例えば候補スペクトルの解析対象ピーク位置での強度に応じて設定される。図5Aに例示される候補スペクトルでは、m/z=188での重み係数が最も大きく、m/z=132、144での重み係数はm/z=188のものよりも小さい。すなわち候補スペクトルの解析対象ピーク位置での強度が大きいほど、大きい重み係数が設定される。このような重み係数を用いて試料スペクトルの解析対象ピーク位置での強度が加重加算されることにより、試料スペクトルと候補スペクトルが類似するほど評価値が大きくなる。 Also, the sum of the values obtained by multiplying the intensity at the analysis target peak position of the sample spectrum by the weighting factor may be calculated as the evaluation value. The weighting factor is set, for example, according to the intensity at the analysis target peak position of the candidate spectrum. In the candidate spectrum illustrated in FIG. 5A, the weighting factor at m/z=188 is the largest, and the weighting factors at m/z=132, 144 are smaller than those at m/z=188. That is, the greater the intensity at the analysis target peak position of the candidate spectrum, the greater the weighting factor is set. By weighted addition of the intensity at the analysis target peak position of the sample spectrum using such a weighting factor, the more similar the sample spectrum and the candidate spectrum, the larger the evaluation value.
 (S406)
 判定部306は、S405で算出された評価値を用いて、S403で検索された候補スペクトルに対応する物質を候補物質とするか否かを判定する。すなわち、予め設定される閾値と評価値との比較によって、候補スペクトルに対応する物質が候補物質とされるか候補物質から除外されるかが判定される。閾値は、例えば候補スペクトルの解析対象ピーク位置での強度の総和が全体の強度の総和で除算された値に基づいて設定される。
(S406)
Using the evaluation value calculated in S405, the determination unit 306 determines whether or not the substance corresponding to the candidate spectrum retrieved in S403 is to be the candidate substance. That is, by comparing a preset threshold value with an evaluation value, it is determined whether the substance corresponding to the candidate spectrum is selected as a candidate substance or excluded from the candidate substances. The threshold is set, for example, based on a value obtained by dividing the sum of intensities at the positions of peaks to be analyzed in the candidate spectrum by the sum of the intensities of the entire candidate spectrum.
 以上説明した処理の流れにより、S403で検索された候補スペクトルの中から偽陽性である可能性が高いものが除外されるので、偽陽性を低減することができる。 By the flow of processing described above, those with a high possibility of being false positives are excluded from the candidate spectra searched in S403, so false positives can be reduced.
