چکیده

Surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SALDI-TOF-MS) using GaP nanoparticles (NPs) prepared by a gas evaporation method was investigated on poly(ethylene glycol)s (PEGs). The mass spectra of PEG and survival yield measurements suggested that larger GaP NPs have a quite high soft ionization ability.

One-pot synthesis of dopamine dithiocarbamate functionalized gold nanoparticles for quantitative analysis of small molecules and phosphopeptides in SALDI- and MALDI-MS.

The sensitivity and efficiency of SALDI-MS or MALDI-MS is mainly dependent on the nature of matrix. A novel approach is proposed for one-pot synthesis of dopamine dithiocarbamate-functionalized gold nanoparticles (DDTC-Au NPs). Their application to quantification of small molecules by surface assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SALDI-TOF-MS) and rapid identifi...

Laser desorption and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry of 29-kDa Au:SR cluster compounds.

Positive and negative ions generated by laser-based ionization methods from three gold:thiolate cluster compounds are mass analyzed by time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The three compounds have similar inorganic core masses ( approximately 29 kDa, approximately 145 Au atoms) but different n-alkanethiolate ligands associated with each cluster compound (Au:SR, R = butane, hexane, dodecane). Irrad...
