Match spectra in MassBank with Duaer
In Duaer, match MS/MS peaks, an exact mass, or an InChIKey against MassBank. One successful search uses 1 credit.
What you get
MassBank spectra in the Duaer data market uses 1 credit per successful search, including a search with no match.
Peak searches return a cosine score.
To work an unknown feature step by step, see Annotate an unknown feature with Duaer.
Search on the canvas
- Open the node creator, pick Duaer Data → MassBank spectra.
- Fill Peaks (mz:intensity pairs separated by spaces), Exact mass, or InChIKey.
- Optional: Cosine threshold, Mass tolerance (Da), Ion Mode.
- Limit defaults to 10, max 20. Execute.
A successful search uses 1 credit. Empty input or a failed source uses 0.

# Duaer MassBank spectra
Match an MS/MS spectrum against the MassBank Europe reference library through Duaer with a Duaer key.
## Call
`GET https://api.duaer.com/v1/data/massbank?peaks=59.0138:715%2089.0251:999&ionMode=NEGATIVE&limit=10`
Header: `Authorization: Bearer <Duaer key>`
Use an account key or a model API key.

Provide `peaks`, `mass`, or `inchikey` (used in that order).
- `peaks` — MS/MS peaks as `mz:intensity` pairs separated by spaces. One `mz intensity` pair per line also works.
- `threshold` — optional. Minimum cosine similarity for `peaks`, from 0 to 1. Default 0.7.
- `mass` — neutral monoisotopic mass, such as 180.0634.
- `tolerance` — optional. Mass tolerance in Da for `mass`. Default 0.01.
- `inchikey` — reference records for one compound, such as a https://skills.duaer.com/mass-candidates.md result.
- `ionMode` — optional. `POSITIVE` or `NEGATIVE`.
- `limit` — optional. From 1 to 20. Default 10.
## Result
Each item has `source`, `title`, `url`, `summary`, `accession`, `compound`, `formula`, `mass`, `inchikey`, `ionMode`, `instrument`, and `score` (cosine, peak searches only).
