29 TOF basics: What s in the box? Flight tube: defined length Pusher and detector Heavier ions have less velocity and take longer to travel along this path Hence, ions are separated by mass Mass accuracy to 4 decimal places 2009 Waters Corporation COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL

30 TOF basics: m/z ? The number of elemental composition results for each mass can be reduced by setting the mass error to a lower value. This is only valid if the mass accuracy of the system is acceptable. Elemental composition of high energy data Search C20H21N = Cyclobenzaprine 2009 Waters Corporation COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL

31 % % % % % % Database creation: MS method MS e Collection of unrestricted dataset m/z MS E mode (collision energy ramp 10-40eV) Low collision energy mode to produce precursor ion data MS MS m/z time m/z MS E time Same conditions used to prepare database and perform routine analysis m/z High collision energy mode to produce fragment ion data MS E 2009 Waters Corporation COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL
