Parts per Million Mass Accuracy on an Orbitrap Mass Spectrometer via Lock Mass Injection into a C-trap

TL;DR: This work demonstrates sub-ppm mass accuracy on a linear ion trap coupled via a radio frequency-only storage trap to the orbitrap mass spectrometer (LTQ Orbitrap), and introduces a variable mass tolerance to improve certainty of peptide and small molecule identification.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Orbitrap: a new mass spectrometer

TL;DR: The Orbitrap as mentioned in this paper is a mass analyzer based on an electrospray ionization source (ESI) with an outer barrel-like electrode, coaxial with the inner spindlelike electrode and mass/charge values measured from the frequency of harmonic ion oscillations along the axis of the electric field, undergone by the orbitally trapped ions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrostatic Axially Harmonic Orbital Trapping: A High-Performance Technique of Mass Analysis

TL;DR: This work describes a new type of mass analyzer which employs trapping in an electrostatic field and demonstrates high-mass resolution up to 150,000 for ions produced by laser ablation, along with high-energy acceptance and wide mass range.
Journal ArticleDOI

Higher-energy C-trap dissociation for peptide modification analysis.

TL;DR: Immonium ions generated via HCD pinpoint modifications such as phosphotyrosine with very high confidence are generated via higher-energy C-trap dissociation (HCD) and this work shows that an added octopole collision cell facilitates de novo sequencing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mass Spectrometry-based Proteomics Using Q Exactive, a High-performance Benchtop Quadrupole Orbitrap Mass Spectrometer

TL;DR: High performance in a robust benchtop format together with the ability to perform complex multiplexed scan modes make the Q Exactive an exciting new instrument for the proteomics and general analytical communities.
