Figure 4. Experimental (top) and simulated (bottom) profile mass spectrum of C11H17NO2 + H+ (resolving power 50 000 full width at half maximum). The zoomed-in detail on the right shows the 15N13C isotope cluster (15N being the shoulder on the left-hand side of the mass peak). Relative abundance of the isotopes are indicated in the boxes.
