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...

Ms Imaging and Ambient Ionization-ms

Protein identification using MS/MS data.

The subject of this tutorial is protein identification and characterisation by database searching of MS/MS Data. Peptide Mass Fingerprinting is excluded because it is covered in a separate tutorial. Practical aspects of database searching are emphasised, such as choice of sequence database, effect of mass tolerance, and how to identify post-translational modifications. The relationship between ...

HPLC-MS/MS of Highly Polar Compounds

An IMS-IMS analogue of MS-MS.

The development of a new ion mobility/mass spectrometry instrument that incorporates a multifield drift tube/ion funnel design is described. In this instrument, individual components from a mixture of ions can be resolved and selected on the basis of mobility differences prior to collisional activation inside the drift tube. The fragment ions that are produced can be dispersed again in a second...
