Feature finding is a common way to process untargeted mass spectrometry (MS) data to obtain a list of chemicals present in a sample. Most feature finding algorithms naïvely search for patterns of unique descriptors (e.g., m/z, retention time, and mobility) and provide a list of unannotated features. There is a need for solutions in processing untargeted MS data, independent of chemical or origin, to assess features based on measurement quality with the aim of improving interpretation. Here, we report the signal response evaluation as a method by which to assess the individual features observed in untargeted MS data. The basis of this method is the ubiquitous relationship between the amount and response in all MS measurements. Three different metrics with user-defined parameters can be used to assess the monotonic or linear relationship of each feature in a dilution series or multiple injection volumes. We demonstrate this approach in metabolomics data obtained from a uniform biological matrix (NIST SRM 1950) and a variable biological matrix (murine kidney tissue). The code is provided to facilitate implementation of this data processing method.
