Abstract
We report on the first multiplex preparative separation by mass spectrometry of bio‐organic molecules in the 200–350 Da mass range that is typical for synthetic drugs. A five‐component mixture consisting of two di‐ and three tripeptides has been separated by mass using a specially designed mass spectrometer. The instrument for preparative separations consists of an electrospray ionization (ESI) source, ion transfer optics, an electrostatic sector, and an inhomogeneous‐field magnetic mass analyzer that achieves linear mass dispersion of ion beams. Protonated peptides produced by electrospray were separated, nondestructively landed on a 16‐channel array of dry collector plates, and reconstituted in solution. The preparation procedures and the instrumental conditions have been optimized to maximize the ion currents. The significant features of the special mass spectrometer are high ion currents and simultaneous separation and collection of mixture components. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
