Download or read book Mass Spectrometry in the Biological Sciences A Tutorial written by M.L Gross and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The developments in mass spectrometry over the past fifteen years have been impressive in their implications in bioanalytical chemistry. The achievements begin with the inventions of Cf-252 Plasma Desorption Mass Spectrometry by Macfarlane and Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometry by Comisarow and Marshall in the mid 1970s. The former showed the feasibility of producing large gas-phase ions from large biomolecules whereas the latter enhanced the capabilities for ion trapping especially in analytical mass spectrometry. A major achievement was the development by Barber of Fast Atom Bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry, an advance that heralded a new era in biological mass spectrometry. Contemporary and routine instruments such as magnetic sectors and quadrupoles were rapidly adapted to F AB, and nearly the entire universe of small molecules became amenable to study by mass spectrometry. The introduction of FAB also paved the way for improvement of instrument capability. For example, the upper mass limit of magnet sector mass spectrometers was increased by nearly an order of magnitude by the instrument manufacturers. Furthermore, the technique of tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) was given new meaning because important structural information for biomolecules could now be produced for ions introduced by FAB into the tandem instrument. The evolution of MS/MS continues today with the development of ion traps, time-of-flight, and sector instruments equipped with array detection.

Download or read book Mass Spectrometry and Hyphenated Techniques in Neuropeptide Research written by Jerzy Silberring and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2002-05-02 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first authoritative guide to the application of this vital analytical technique Mass spectrometry is a powerful analytical technique that is used to identify unknown compounds, to quantify known materials, and to elucidate the structural and chemical properties of molecules. In analyzing the effects of experimental drugs on the brain, it is the sole technique for identifying the presence and structure of neuropeptides-substances that indicate the effect of the drug. Mass Spectrometry and Hyphenated Techniques in Neuropeptide Research specifically explains how to apply the technology to this process. Because the book is written by mass spectrometry users, as opposed to mass spectrometrists, the focus remains on practical applications of the technique. The authors demonstrate how mass spectrometry works, how to apply the technique to research, which types of instrumentation should be used for particular requirements, and how to plan experiments. Readers will learn why mass spectrometry provides more outcome features than other techniques in neuropeptide analysis, including simultaneous detection, identification of substances present in mixtures, and sequence information even when the residues are modified, blocked, or unusual. Among the chapters in this comprehensive text are: * Sequencing of Peptides by Nanospray Mass Spectrometry * Laser-Machined Microdevices for Mass Spectrometry * Electron Capture Dissociation of Peptides * Synthesis of Combinatorial Peptide Libraries * Analysis of Tissues That Reflect Nervous System Disease Doctoral students, researchers, and industry professionals in pharmacology, chemistry, biochemistry/biotechnology, and medicine will find Mass Spectrometry and Hyphenated Techniques in Neuropeptide Research to be an indispensable starting point for understanding peptides, their function, and identification.

Download or read book The Encyclopedia of Mass Spectrometry written by Michael L. Gross and published by Elsevier Science. This book was released on 2006-12-21 with total page 1040 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 6: Ionization Methods captures the story of molecular ionization and its phenomenal evolution that makes mass spectrometry the powerful method it is today. Chapters 1 and 2 cover fundamentals and various issues that are common to all ionization (e.g., accurate mass, isotope clusters, and derivatization). Chapters 3-9 acknowledge that some ionization methods are appropriate for gas-phase molecules and others for molecules that are in the solid or liquid states. Chapters 3-6 cover gas-phase molecules, dividing the subject into: (1) ionization of gas-phase molecules by particles (e.g., EI), (2) ionization by photons, (3) ionization by ion-molecule and molecule-molecule reactions (e.g., APCI and DART), and ionization in Strong electric fields (i.e., Electrohydrodynamic and Field Ionization/Desorption). "Ionization in a Strong Electric Field" illustrates the transition to ionization of molecules in the solid or liquid states, covered in Chapters 7-9: (1) spray methods for ionization (e.g., electrospray), (2) desorption ionization by particle bombardment (e.g., FAB), and (3) desorption by photons (e.g., MALDI). Electrospray and MALDI also lead to applications in biophysical chemistry, the theme of Chapter 10. Chapter 11 reconsiders ionization from the view of choosing an ionization method. The range of subjects is from ionization of organic and biomolecules to the study of microorganisms.
