A simple definition of a Mass A simple definition of a Mass SpectrometerSpectrometer

• A Mass Spectrometer is an analytical instrument A Mass Spectrometer is an analytical instrument that can separate charged molecules according that can separate charged molecules according to theirto their mass–to–charge ratio.mass–to–charge ratio.

• Mass spectrometer can answer the questions Mass spectrometer can answer the questions “what is in the sample” (qualitative structural “what is in the sample” (qualitative structural information) and “how much is present” information) and “how much is present” (quantitative determination) for a very wide (quantitative determination) for a very wide range of samples at high sensitivityrange of samples at high sensitivity

Detector

The electrical field applied within the reflector produces an ion mirror effect directing the ions towards a second detector

Mass Filter: Reflector TOF

Improvement in resolution by • Increasing the effective flight length of the tube• Re-focusing of analogous ions having slight different energy due to initial spread in the ion source

Isotopic Resolution

• What benefit is high resolution• Improved identification of peptides• Indication of potential modification• Greater degree of mass accuracy

• Resolution is defined as :

Mass / (peak width at half peak height)

High Resolution - Too much data?Monoisotopic resolution of Insulin

C12 : 5730.61

C13

2 x C13

In compounds with more than 100 carbon atoms the height of the 13C isotope peak exceeds the height of the 12C peak
