Chemical Analysis of Pesticides Using GC/MS, GC/MS/MS, and LC/MS/MS

There are well over 500 registered pesticides worldwide for use in agricultural regions and new agrochemicals are introduced to the marketplace continuously. This chapter deals with the chemical analysis methods for the main pesticide chemical classes that are most frequently analyzed with gas chromatography (GC) or liquid chromatography (LC) coupled to mass spectrometry (MS). GC amenable pesti...

The Peptide MS/MS-Fragmentome: A Set of Predictable Fragment Ions with Highly Redundant Sequence Information

Extended Abstract Low-energy collision-induced dissociation (CID) of peptides in a collision cell has been introduced as a fast method for peptide sequencing [1]. The method has been adapted to the analysis of gel-isolated proteins by the introduction of the nanoESI technology [2]. In the meantime proteins can be identified by search-engine supported interpretation of raw data of peptide MS/MS ...

Overlapping MS/MS spectra and disease proteomics

The ongoing success of the proteomics endeavor is the result of a prolific symbiosis between experimental ingenuity [2, 3, 4] and efficient bioinformatics [5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11]. Without these, ground-breaking landmarks such as the human genome project [12, 13] or the HUPO initiative [14] would likely not have seen the light of day. But despite valuable contributions, the road to a better unde...
