ABSTRACT:
An improved method for the mass spectrometric determination of the molecular weight of a highly polyionic analyte is provided. The method employs reagents which are highly polyionic but which are of opposite charge to the analytes. The reagents and analytes form a non-covalent complex which is more easily ionized during mass spectrometry and decreases fragmentation of the analyte. Highly polyionic reagents are also provided. The reagents include a multiplicity of highly ionic groups covalently attached along a flexible molecular backbone.
