MASS SPECTROMETRY DISTINGUISHABLE SYNTHETIC COMPOUNDS, LIBRARIES, AND METHODS THEREOF

Embodiments in accordance with the present disclosure are directed to polymer beads and uses thereof, including forming libraries of compounds for screening and assay purposes. An example method includes using logic circuitry to: select a plurality of molecules that include a plurality of subgroups, each of the plurality of molecules exhibiting a mass spectrometry characteristic that is distinguishable from mass spectrometry characteristics of other molecules of the plurality, and assign the plurality of molecules with a position in a sequence of a plurality of synthetic compounds forming a library. The method further includes defining, as data in a memory circuit of the logic circuitry, the plurality of synthetic compounds that are sequenceable via mass spectrometry using the assigned positions of the plurality of molecules for communicating to other circuitry for formation thereof via coupling chemistry or screening of a particular function.
