Ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (IMS-MS) of small molecules: Separating and assigning structures to ions

Tandem ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IMS-MS) study of ion evaporation from ionic liquid-acetonitrile nanodrops.

Ion evaporation is an essential step in the formation of charged ions from electrosprays, yet many aspects of the process are poorly understood. The ion evaporation kinetics of the 1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium+ (EMI+) based ionic liquids (ILs) EMI-BF4, EMI-bis(perfluoroethylsulfonyl)imide, EMI-bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide and EMI-tris(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)methide (EMI-Methide) are studi...

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

Multiplexed ion mobility spectrometry-orthogonal time-of-flight mass spectrometry.

Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) coupled to orthogonal time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF) has shown significant promise for the characterization of complex biological mixtures. The enormous complexity of biological samples (e.g., from proteomics) and the need for both biological and technical analysis replicates imposes major challenges for multidimensional separation platforms with regard t...
