Coupling of Liquid Chromatography and MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Springer Laboratory ((SPLABORATORY))

Abstract

From the very early stages of development of modern mass spectrometry, the value of its combination with chromatography was quickly recognized. The coupling of GC with MS was a natural evolution since they are both vapor phase techniques, and very quickly GC-MS has been accepted as a standard component of the organic analytical laboratory. It has taken considerably longer to achieve a satisfactory and all-purpose mode of HPLC-MS coupling. The difficulties with HPLC-MS were associated with the fact that vaporization of typically 1 ml/min from the HPLC translates into a vapor flow rate of approximately 500–1000 ml/min. Other difficulties related to the eluent composition as result of the frequent use of non-volatile modifiers, and the ionization of nonvolatile and thermally labile analytes. However, during the past few years commercial interfaces have been developed which have led to a broad applicability of HPLC-MS [1–3].
