ABSTRACT:
Rapid and efficient fragmentation of ions in an ion trap for MS/MS analysis is achieved by a pulsed fragmentation technique. Ions of interest are placed at an elevated value of Q and subjected to a relatively high amplitude, short-duration resonance excitation pulse to cause the ions to undergo collision-induced fragmentation. The Q value of the ions of interest is then rapidly reduced, thereby decreasing the low-mass cutoff and allowing retention and subsequent analysis of low-mass ion fragments.
