The Benefits of Gas-Phase Collision Cross-Section (CCS) Measurements in High-Resolution, Accurate-Mass UPLC/MS Analyses

Waters
12 Sept 2016

This white paper discusses the benefits of gas-phase CCS measurements in HR, accurate-mass UPLC/MS analyses. The rotationally-averaged CCS may be measured experimentally using ion mobility mass spectrometry. CSS is an important distinguishing characteristic of an ion in the gas phase, being related to its chemical structure and three-dimensional conformation. Therefore, it allows the separation of isomers, conformers and promoters and gives increased peak capacity and resolution.

UHPLC and HPLCHigh performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC), also known as UPLC, are analytical techniques used to separate, identify and quantitate components of complex mixtures including biological samples such as proteins and lipids as well as chemical mixtures of pesticides, drugs and oils. Both techniques are liquid chromatographic methods but differ by operating pressures (HPLC < 6000 psi < UHPLC ). Components of HPLC and UHPLC systems include columns, detectors, pumps, autosamplers and column heaters. Explore a range of UHPLC and HPLC columns for your specific sample needs including reverse phase, normal phase, ion exchange, HILIC, ion exclusion and size exclusion columns. For more specialized HPLC, explore FPLC, countercurrent LC and simulated moving bed systems.

It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.
