A method and system for obtaining mass spectrographic data of a substance. The method includes (a) subjecting the substance to a chromatographic process and ionizing the output thereof; (b) obtaining a current mass spectrogram of the output; (c) identifying at least one ion having a fast rising mass signal by comparing the current mass spectrum obtained in step (b) against one or more previously acquired mass spectrums of the output; and (d) fragmenting the identified ion and recording a mass spectrum resulting therefrom. A mass spectrometer system, includes a chromatography column; a mass spectrometer, including an ion source for ionizing the output of the chromatographic column, in which the mass spectrometer is capable of isolating, fragmenting and mass analyzing an ion of selected mass; and a data-dependent, data acquisition controller programmed to operate the mass spectrometer so as to obtain a current mass spectrogram of the output, identify one or more ions having fast rising mass signals by comparing the current mass spectrum against one or more previously acquired mass spectra of the output, and fragmenting of said identified ions and recording a mass spectrum resulting therefrom.
