A series of synthetic cyclic decapeptides and other smaller cyclic peptides were analyzed using matrixassisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. The investigated compounds were cyclized in a head-to-tail manner and contained non-proteinaceous amino acids, such

β¦ Synopsis
Bumetanide was evaluated as a matrix for prompt fragmentation matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) experiments on peptides. Both the MALDI mass spectrum and some physical properties of bumetanide were compared with those of some commonly used matrices. Bumetanide was then evaluated for prompt fragmentation MALDI by comparing the prompt fragmentation produced using bumetanide with that for a-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid and 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid. Bumetanide was also evaluated for use in a mixed matrix with a-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid. A 4 : 1 matrix mixture was found to be useful for the post-source decay analysis of a prompt fragment ion. The prompt fragmentation/post-source decay analysis experiment is demonstrated on a prompt fragment ion from the oxidized b-chain of insulin.
