Using retention indices in MassHunter Quant (GC-MS)

Good day,

I was wondering if there is a way to set up MH Quant to use retention time indices rather than RT when doing targeted analysis.
Or perhaps use the RI to correct any RT shifts in the analysis. I have yet to find an option for that. I have only found an option to use RI as a library search approach.

Thank you for your time.

Best regards,

Ricardo

Hi dkrial,
I looked into this a little with our MassHunter specialist in the US. The way RI is handled is very version specific with changes in every major version from rev B06.00 Quant through Rev B08.00. I haven't investigated Rev B09.00. It may be better to reach out to your local support as from what I understand it can be very complicated and may be difficult to achieve over the Agilent Community. I have provided a link below.
