✦ Synopsis


Residual acrylamide can cause severe suppression of signal intensity during matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) peptide mass mapping experiments. This suppression phenomenon can compromise the ability to detect low picomole and subpicomolar amounts of peptides extracted from twodimensional gels. A rapid and simple method that exploits the use of pipette tips incorporating C18 packing materials for the enhancement of MALDI signal intensity is presented. The utility of the method is demonstrated with peptide solutions incorporating residual acrylamide and/or gel monomer components.
