	<title>TechNote: How to Optimize ACD/IntelliXtract Input Parameters</title>
	<description>There are a handful of key ACD/IntelliXtract input parameters to adjust before processing your data.  Adjusting these parameters will improve IntelliXtract processing speed, reduce the number false-positive components, and get the most out of IntelliXtract data processing.</description>

	<title>Application Note: Extraction and Elucidation of Metabolites Using Related Fragment Screening</title>
	<description>Although it is easy to understand how spectral similarities can be exploited to extract and elucidate metabolites, in practice, this is can be difficult.  It is not easy to display this information, and when it is difficult to visualize, it is difficult for the user to keep track of.  
This application note demonstrates how ACD/IntelliXtract can be used to extract and identify metabolites using related fragment screening.  Automatic labeling features make it easier for the user to review the mass spectra of possible metabolites, and understand the results.</description>
