Abstract:
Applications of ion-ion reaction chemistry are disclosed in which proton transfer reactions (PTR) are used to (1) simplify complex mixture analysis of samples introduced into a mass spectrometer, and (2) improve resolution and sensitivity for the analysis of large proteins in excess of 50 kDa by removing charge and reducing the collisional cross section.
