The ability to measure mass to charge ratio of the ions in mass spectrum is the most important feature of the high-resolution mass spectrometers. An analyte's identification can be progressed further ...

In mass spectrometry, a sample is analyzed to determine its molecular composition through the generation of a spectrum that reveals the masses of its component parts. A transfer line introduces the ...

Effective protein characterization depends on the precise isolation and fragmentation of peptide ions within the mass spectrometer, typically coupled with liquid chromatography (LC-MS/MS). In a ...
