This analysis of pioglitazone in plasma using full scan data acquisition at a resolution setting of 60k provided calibration data that was linear over five orders of dynamic range from 0.1 to 10,000 ng/mL (an expansion of 0.1 to 100 ng/mL is shown, highlighting the lower calibration points). The combination of mass accuracy and resolution allows use of narrow extraction windows to increase specificity. The lowest limit of quantitation (LLOQ) of 0.1 ng/mL (0.03 pg on-column) shown was determined using an extraction tolerance of ±5 ppm. Even at the LLOQ, there are 14 data points across the peak to ensure the highest confidence in quantitative performance.

“Accurate, optimization-free quantitation

From small-molecule unknown identification to protein, peptide, and biotherapeutic applications, combining excellent mass accuracy and resolution with the ability to perform quantitation using full scan or targeted data acquisition modes, you can be sure of obtaining the highest possible sensitivity and dynamic range regardless of sample matrix complexity.

Deliver dependable sample insights with minimal effort and confidently acquire highest-quality data using the multiple data acquisition options that are easily accessed in intelligent, ready-to-run method templates.

The ability to establish and maintain mass accuracy better than sub-1-ppm using EASY-IC on the Orbitrap Exploris 240 mass spectrometer is a real game changer for non-targeted analysis; with this capability, elemental formula elucidation of unknowns is significantly more robust.”

Achieve complete confidence across multiple small-molecule applications irrespective of complexity or dynamic rangeRegardless of your application, complete confidence in qualitative and quantitative data is critical for decision-making. Fast track your productivity and meet your experimental objectives with absolute certainty in your MS data.

10

Single-scan accuracy for absolute confidence

Scan-to-scan mass accuracy and stability enables greater confidence in compound assignments, even at low intensities, and the use of narrow extraction windows increases specificity and accuracy when quantifying.

As shown above for atrazine (m/z 216.1010), each datapoint is within ±0.5 ppm, regardless of peak intensity, which combined with high resolving power, provides the basis for robust data analysis without the need to average data acquired from multiple scans.

Rapid screening with spectral confirmation

While consistent sub-ppm mass accuracy for precursor confirmation when performing targeted screening provides high levels of confidence, fast scanning and the use of high-quality mass spectral fragmentation libraries, such as the Thermo Scientific™ mzVault™ library, provide additional confidence in results.

The data above show the data-independent acquisition analysis of pesticides in olive oil. Excellent spectral fragmentation matching between the library and experimental MS2 data for etofenprox at a concentration of 1 ppb is observed.

Leverage leading performance for cutting-edge clinical research

The complexity of plasma samples presents a challenge when quantitating proteins and identifying real changes, especially for low-abundance proteins, such as beta-actin, a low-abundance protein found in white blood cells and platelets.

The use of low centrifuge force (a–c) and high centrifuge force (d–f) shows depletion in beta-actin (×40 lower relative concentration) in properly spun out plasma, demonstrating the accuracy, sensitivity, and resolving power of Thermo Scientific™ Orbitrap™ technology in addressing this analytical challenge.

The m/z 116.0706 product ion of ornithine found in the MS1 spectra above could be mistaken as proline because they share the same exact mass. Compared to standard trapping (top), the fragment ion’s intensity is significantly reduced (bottom) when using mild trapping.

An extended low m/z range enables confident identification of isomers. For 2-aminobutyric acid (top) and dimethylglycine (bottom), there are five additional fragment ions detected, allowing confident differentiation between the two structural isomers.

Small-molecule analysis demands reliable acquisition of high-quality MS and MS2 data to facilitate successful compound identification and characterization. However, complex samples can limit the utility of data-dependent and independent acquisition strategies due to collection of irrelevant data from background matrices. Proven AcquireX intelligent data acquisition collects more meaningful high-quality MS2 data, increasing profiling efficiency with minimal manual experimental setup and easier subsequent data interpretation.

12

Collect more meaningful high-quality data with ease

The challenge of capturing “everything of interest”

AcquireX intelligent data acquisition maximizes data-dependent acquisition (DDA) effectiveness, unlocking your data’s true value.

Data-dependent acquisition isolates a single precursor ion with a narrow isolation window, generating easily-interpretable fragmentation spectra. However, low-abundance species can be missed.

Data-independent acquisition (DIA) fragments all precursors for a given precursor mass window, including background ions, resulting in complex fragmentation spectra requiring deconvolution to relate fragment ions back to their precursor ion.

“ With greater than 90% MS2 coverage for all detected sample-specific compounds with a few injections using the deep scan AcquireX workflow, the need to use non-DDA MS2 is eliminated. Even in complex matrices, the AcquireX workflow provides certainty in fragmentation spectra compared to acquiring fragmentation for everything.”

Dr. Lee Ferguson, Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Duke University

Using the deep scan AcquireX intelligent data acquisition workflow to analyze river water for emerging pollutants (e.g., PFAS) generated MS2 data for more than 90% of the approximately 7,000 compounds detected in the pooled samples from three iterative injections and a 15-minute gradient. By comparison, a standard DDA experiment generates less than 60% MS2 coverage with less specificity for sample-specific compound fragmentation (the majority of compounds within the sample are low intensity). Because MS2 data is acquired for a greater number of compounds, retrospective data analysis can be performed without re-analyzing samples.

Greater than 90% MS2 coverage in three injectionsUtilize maximum instrument duty cycle and avoid fragmenting background ions and unrelated sample peaks by automatically generating an ion exclusion list.

Focus on the sample-relevant chromatographic peaks by generating an ion inclusion list from a matrix sample to further reduce uninformative fragmentation spectra by prioritizing the molecular ion.

Obtain exhaustive fragmentation information for all small molecules, while avoiding fragmenting the same ion twice with automated exclusion list updates over multiple iterative injections.

Intelligent exclusion of background ions and comprehensive fragmentation of sample-relevant compounds across iterative injections achieves ultimate sample interrogation.

Powerful software tools connect small-molecule unknown identification and characterization to screening and quantitation. Once you have acquired comprehensive, high-quality MS and MS2 data, our software ecosystem is designed to reduce the time to high-confidence insights.

• Streamline qualitative and quantitative data analysis using template-driven data processing

• Access world-leading mass spectral fragmentation libraries to identify compounds

• Seamlessly transfer knowledge from discovery to everyday testing

• When regulatory compliance is required, Chromeleon CDS software delivers productivity with MS quantitation and targeted screening capabilities

“Compound Discoverer software replicates much of what we would do manually, where its extensive suite of processing tools, and statistical analysis and chemically-intelligent software algorithms help to minimize subjectivity and eliminate time-consuming or non-value-added steps. Together, these save us a great deal of time—often hours to days, depending upon study complexity or the questions at hand—ultimately helping to drive the metabolite identification process and support drug-project decisions in a timely manner.”
