Investigation of Dendriplexes by Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry

Investigation of dendriplexes by ion mobility-mass spectrometry.

Highly branched polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers presenting biological activities have been envisaged as non-viral gene delivery vectors. They are known to associate with nucleic acid (DNA) in non-covalent complexes via electrostatic interactions. Although their transfection efficiency has been proved, PAMAMs present a significant cytotoxicity due to their cationic surface. To overcome such a ...

Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry

for more complex analysers for automated sample processing and plant control. The separation time will continue to decrease; in the past there has been limited interest in fast separations but this could change as automated sample processing is developed. Increasing use of coupled techniques such as GC-GC, liquid chromatography-GC, and supercritical Suid chromatography-GC for the separation of ...

Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry

Development of atmospheric pressure ionization ion mobility spectrometry and ion mobility spectrometry mass spectrometry

Investigation of drift gas selectivity in high resolution ion mobility spectrometry with mass spectrometry detection.

Recent studies in electrospray ionization (ESI)/ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) have focussed on employing different drift gases to alter separation efficiency for some molecules. This study investigates four structurally similar classes of molecules (cocaine and metabolites, amphetamines, benzodiazepines, and small peptides) to determine the effect of structure on relative mobility changes in ...
