Re-sequencing of multiple single nucleotide polymorphisms by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

Forensic DNA fingerprinting by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.

The determination of the molecular mass of a DNA sequence has several benefits over conventional fragment-length analysis that are advantageous to the forensic field: (i) sequence variation is captured that increases the power of discrimination compared with that obtained by conventional fragment-length analysis. First experiments showed that this increase makes up to 20%-30% for STR analysis. ...

chromatography–electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry

Improved characterization of tomato polyphenols using liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization linear ion trap quadrupole Orbitrap mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry.

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is the second most important fruit crop worldwide. Tomatoes are a key component in the Mediterranean diet, which is strongly associated with a reduced risk of chronic degenerative diseases. In this work, we use a combination of mass spectrometry (MS) techniques with negative ion detection, liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization linear ion trap quadr...

Nucleotide and Nucleotide Sugar Analysis by Liquid Chromatography-Electrospray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry on Surface-Conditioned Porous Graphitic Carbon

We examined the analysis of nucleotides and nucleotide sugars by chromatography on porous graphitic carbon with mass spectrometric detection, a method that evades contamination of the MS instrument with ion pairing reagent. At first, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and other triphosphate nucleotides exhibited very poor chromatographic behavior on new columns and could hardly be eluted from columns...

Evaluation of capillary liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization ion mobility spectrometry with mass spectrometry detection.

Due to the proteomics revolution, multi-dimensional separation and detection instruments are required to evaluate many peptides and proteins in single samples. In this study, electrospray ionization (ESI) ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) was evaluated as an additional separation after HPLC separations. Common HPLC mobile phase compositions (solvents, acid modifiers, and buffers) were assessed fo...
