Hexatriacontane (C 36 ) was exposed to vacuum ultraviolet radiation. The formation of double bonds was investigated by derivatization, i.e. these olefinic structures were transformed by epoxidation in order to determine their number in the molecule. The extent of the reaction was determined by means

β¦ Synopsis
We present a new target modification for commercial ion sources to facilitate the use of liquid matrices such as glycerol and lactic acid in infrared matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (IR-MALDI). Benefits of this modification include increased sensitivity compared with the unmodified commercial target, mass resolution comparable to the best achievable with conventional IR-MALDI or UV-MALDI, and decreased sample volatility leading to an analysis time extended up to fivefold compared with using conventional target designs (up to 1 hour using volumes of only 250 nL).

The analysis of oligonucleotides using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) has led to the investigation of the use of matrix additives (i.e., co-matrices) to help improve the poor spectral quality commonly observed during the analysis of this class of compounds.
Neutral and acidic oligosaccharides from human milk were analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI/MS).
