High resolution MS1 based quantification
Abstract:
A data independent acquisition method of mass spectrometry for analysing a sample as it elutes from a chromatography system is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: ionising the sample to produce precursor ions, selecting a precursor mass range for the sample to be analysed, performing a plurality of MS1 scans and performing at most two sets of MS2 scans. Each of the MS1 scans uses a mass analyser operated at a first, relatively higher resolution, for identification and/or quantitation of the sample in the MS1 domain across the precursor mass range. The set of MS2 scans comprises performing MS2 scans of fragmented mass range segments performed with the mass analyser, operated at a second, relatively lower resolution. In the method, the MS1 scans are interleaved throughout the performing of the set of MS2 scans such that the MS1 scans provide a mass chromatogram of the sample.
