Innovations in MS Instruments

Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) and surface-enhanced laser desorption ionization (SELDI) have been used online with TOF-MS for protein differential profiles of intact or hydrolyzed biological matrices in proteomics. The potential use of affinity chips, grafted with specific Ab towards the drug compound for MALDI or SELDI, will bring sensitive and selective tools for macromolecules. Specific Ab towards either the intact protein or several signature peptides [Pg.173]

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) coupled to MS has the advantage of high resolution and soft ionization for biomolecules, which may be used to differentiate post-translational modifications and variants of intact proteins and oligonucleotides. Different modes of CE (capillary zone electrophoresis, capillary isoelectric focusing, capillary electrochromatography, micellar electrokinetic chromatography, nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis) to MS as well as online preconcentration techniques (transient capillary isotachophoresis, solid-phase extraction, membrane preconcentration) are used to compensate for the restricted detection sensitivity of the CE methodology [77, 78]. [Pg.174]

Previous applications of ESI-MS could quantify intact proteins at relatively high concentrations, such as that of human transferrin in plasma samples [79] and o ,-globulin in urine and kidney samples [80]. With the use of solid-phase extraction combined with a high-sensitivity MS, improvements on sensitivity were achieved, for example for the quantification of rk5 in monkey plasma reaching a LLOQ of 10.29 ng/mL [81]. [Pg.174]
