Development of a high-throughput IMS–IMS–MS approach for analyzing mixtures of biomolecules

A high-throughput approach for biomolecule analysis is demonstrated for a mixture of peptides from tryptic digest of four proteins as well as a tryptic digests of human plasma. In this method a chip based electrospray autosampler coupled to a hybrid ion mobility (IMS) mass spectrometer (MS) is utilized to achieve rapid sample analysis. This high-throughput measurement is realized by exploiting the direct infusion capability of the chip based...
