When Ion Mobility is utilised in the Synapt G2-Si Mass Spectrometer (Figure 1), the instrument can be operated in Wideband Enhancement (WE) mode (Figure 2), where the pusher is synchronised with the pusher delay time, this being related to the drift time of species passing through the TWIMS. The Mass Spectrometer can be programmed to optimise this parameter for a specific charge state over the entire mass range. The Wideband Enhancement mode of operation can give five to ten times increase in sensitivity over the entire mass range for the chosen charge state, resulting from a duty cycle improvement from an average of 15% to approximately 89%. In this poster, we describe the use of Wideband Enhancement mode applied to peptide fragment ions in both non-targeted and targeted proteomics experiments. The increase in sensitivity leads to significant improvements in MSMS data quality and hence protein identification rates. In addition, the increased sensitivity extends the limit of detection in ToF MRM experiments.

INTRODUCTION

The average duty cycle of Time of Flight analysers is dependant on the m/z data acquisition range but the integration of travelling wave ion mobility separation (TWIMS) devices in QToF geometries can afford significant duty cycle improvements.

When Ion Mobility is utilised in the Synapt G2-Si Mass Spectrometer (Figure 1), the instrument can be operated in Wideband Enhancement (WE) mode (Figure 2), where the pusher is synchronised with the pusher delay time, this being related to the drift time of species passing through the TWIMS.

The Mass Spectrometer can be programmed to optimise this parameter for a specific charge state over the entire mass range. The Wideband Enhancement mode of operation can give five to ten times increase in sensitivity over the entire mass range for the chosen charge state, resulting from a duty cycle improvement from an average of 15% to approximately 89%.

In this poster, we describe the use of Wideband Enhancement mode applied to peptide fragment ions in both non-targeted and targeted proteomics experiments. The increase in sensitivity leads to significant improvements in MSMS data quality and hence protein identification rates. In addition, the increased sensitivity extends the limit of detection in ToF MRM experiments.

CONCLUSION

Ion mobility enabled Q ToF operated in

Wideband Enhancement mode improves

the duty cycle of the instrument to

approximately 89%.

The increase in signal intensity thus

afforded by this duty cycle improvement

leads to an increase in confident protein

identifications in non targeted

experiments.

Good overlap of HD-DDA protein

identifications is found when compared

to equivalent loads of ToF-DDA and

HDMSE experiments.

The use of the Wideband Enhancement

mode in ToF MRM experiments extends

the limit of detection.
