About the Mass spectrometry category
LC-MS and high-resolution MS, charge states, mass accuracy in ppm, and what identity confirmation does and does not establish. This post is a community wiki: any member at trust level 3 or above can edit it,…

Isotope patterns and why the monoisotopic peak is not the tallest — does this still hold?
Isotope patterns and why the monoisotopic peak is not the tallest — does this still hold? — that is the question, and I have not found it answered plainly anywhere I have looked. Asking about Isotope patterns…

MS/MS sequence confirmation: what it costs and when it is worth it
MS/MS sequence confirmation: what it costs and when it is worth it — setting out what I have, and where I think it stops being reliable. I would like to understand what this number means before I repeat it…

Mass error in ppm: the arithmetic and the caveat — a second dataset
On the subject in the title: Mass error in ppm: the arithmetic and the caveat — a second dataset Working notes rather than a conclusion. Working through the identity arithmetic and I would like it checked.…

MS/MS sequence confirmation: what it costs and when it is worth it — what changed since
Posting this under the heading it deserves: MS/MS sequence confirmation: what it costs and when it is worth it — what changed since Everything below is what sits behind that. Two reports on the same lot, and…

Adducts: sodium, potassium, and the peak you did not expect — does this still hold?
Asking directly, because I could not find a straight answer: Adducts: sodium, potassium, and the peak you did not expect — does this still hold? Adducts keeps being re-asked here and I think that is because…

Charge states for a 4 kDa peptide, worked through — the long version
Charge states for a 4 kDa peptide, worked through — the long version Writing it up because I had to work it out twice and would rather nobody else did. Working through the identity arithmetic and I would like…

Why mass spectrometry cannot tell you about an epimer
Why mass spectrometry cannot tell you about an epimer I have a specific reason for asking rather than idle curiosity, and the context is below. I have spent a fortnight trying to pin mass spectrometry down…
