We present in this work a new technique, which combines laser photofragmentation spectroscopy with tandem mass spectrometry, for structural investigations of biomolecular ions in the gas phase. A novel apparatus was designed and built for the implementatio ...
In the present work, a polymer microfabricated microsprayer is characterised and tested for the mass spectrometric analysis of biomolecules, in particular in the context of protein mass spectrometry and proteomics. As the core of this work deals with analy ...
Ion-pair reversed-phase high-performance liq. chromatog. (IP-RP-HPLC) has been evaluated as a method for the fractionation and desalting of ribonucleic acids prior to their characterization by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Monolithic, poly(sty ...
Taking advantage of the electrochemical aspects of electrospray ionization (ESI) sources in positive ionization mode mass spectrometry (MS), aqueous copper complexes are electrogenerated using sacrificial copper electrodes. When using 8-hydroxyquinoline or ...
Keeping up: The fastest kinetic data for ion transfer at a liquid/liquid interface were evaluated by nanopipette voltammetry. The steady-state voltammograms can be explained by theoretical models. In previous electrochemical measurements the systematic und ...
A miniaturized polymer electrospray-type interface is used to study metal-ion chelation with model peptides. Taking advantage of the intrinsic electrochemical behavior of electrospray, a sacrificial electrode is used to generate at the same time electrospr ...
The interaction of copper ions with peptides was investigated by electrospray mass spectrometry. Two electrospray micro-emitters were compared, the first one with a platinum electrode using a copper(II) electrolyte solution containing a peptide sample, and ...
The electrochemically induced mass spectrometric tagging of cysteines by substituted hydroquinones was studied for peptides in a classical electrospray solvent (i.e., MeOH/H2O/AcOH 50/49/1). The tagging efficiency was tested with different hydroquinone com ...
Ionic liquids pose challenges and provide solutions for electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Being inherently charged, they are themselves easy to characterise in both positive- and negative-ion mode by ESI-MS, but the challenge arises when ...

The vacuum deposition of complex functional molecules and nanoparticles by thermal sublimation is often hindered due to their extremely low vapor pressure. This especially impedes the application of ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) based analytical and surface modif ...
