Partial 18 O-labeling of peptides has been applied to post-source decay experiments in a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer. The ions which originate from the carboxyl terminus of a peptide partially retain 18 O atoms which have readily been incorporated int

โฆ Synopsis
Maltotriosyl
-and panosyl-ฮฑ-cyclodextrins and the nonaose of pullulan were analyzed by post-source decay (PSD) fragment methods of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectroscopy. By the mass number analysis, it was found that all of the PSD fragment ions were produced by cleavages of glycosidic linkages. Comparison of the relative intensities of the ions in those compounds enabled us to distinguish two kinds of glycosidic linkages, ฮฑ1-4 and ฮฑ1-6, by MALDI-TOFMS with a new type of ion reflector: the curved field reflectron.
