Ionization methods
Analytes are ionized to be driven in the mass analyzer Electron impact (EI) Chemical Ionisation (CI) Fast atom bombardment (FAB) Field desorption (FD) Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionisation (APCI) ESI Electro-Spray Ionization MALDI Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization
EI electron impact ionisation: beam of electrons through the gas-phase sample. Produces molecular ions or fragment ions. Typically 70eV. Sample heated. + Reproducible, structural information - sample must be volatile and stable, molecular ion often abscent mass range: < 1000Da CI: chemical ionisation: reagent gaz (methane, isobutane, or ammonia) ionized with electrons. High gaz pressure: (R = reagent, S = sample, e = electron, . = radical electron , H = hydrogen) R + e ---> R+. + 2e R+. + RH ---> RH+ + R. RH+ + S ---> SH+ + R Heated sample. + [M+H]+ often visible, less fragmentation than EI - sample must be volatile and stable, less structural info than EI mass range: < 1000Da DCI: Desorption CI : CI on a heated filament + rapid, simple - reproducibility mass range <1500Da NCI: negative-ion CI: electron capture; use of Methane to slow down electrons + efficient, sensitive; less fragmentation that EI, CI - not all molecule compatible, reproducibility mass range <1000Da
FD: Field Desorption: sample deposited on filament gradually heated by electric field. Sample ionise by electron tunneling. Ions are M+ and [M+Na]+ + simple spectra, almost no background - sensitive to alkali, slow, volatile to desorb mass range <2000-3000Da FI: Field ionisation: sample introduced in gas phase (heaten or not), ionised by electron tunneling near the emitter. + simple spectra, almost no background - sample must be volatile mass range <1000Da FAB: fast atom bombardment: analyte in a liquid matrix (glycerol, etc.). Bombardment with fast atom beam (xenon at 6keV). Desorbtion of molecular ions, fragments and matrix clusters sample introduced liquid, or LC/MS + rapid, simple, good for variety of compounds, strong currents, high resolution - background, sample must be soluble in matrix mass range ~300-6000Da SIMS: soft ionisation: similar to FAB but with ion beam as gas (Ce+), allowing higher acceleration (energy) + idem FAB - idem FAB, target can get hotter, more maintenance mass range 300-13000Da
ESI: electrospray ionisation: The sample solution is sprayed across a high potential difference (a few kilovolts) from a needle into an orifice in the interface. Heat and gas flows are used to desolvate the ions existing in the sample solution. ESI often produces multiply charged ions with the number of charges tending to increase as the molecular weight increases. High to low flow rates 1 ml/min to nl/min. + good for charged, polar or basic compounds, m/z ok for most MS, best for multiply charged ions, low background, controlled fragmentation, MS/MS compatible - complementary to APCI: not good for uncharged, non-basic, low-polarity compounds, low ion currents mass range <200000Da APCI: atmospheric pressure CI: as in ESI, sample introduced in a high potential difference field. Uses a corona discharge for better ionisation of less polar molecules than in ESI. APCI and ESI are complementary MALDI: Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization: analyte co-crystallised in matrix. The matrix chromophore absorbs and distribute the energy of a laser, produced a plasma, vaporates and ionize the sample. + rapid, convenient for molecular weight (singly charged ions mostly) - MS/MS difficult, almost not compatible with LC coupling <500000Da

FTMS
Ions moving at their cyclotron frequency can absorb RF energy at this same frequency. A pulse of RF excites the ions in the magnetic field. The ions re-emit the radiation, which is picked up by the reciever plates. The decay produces a free-induction decay signal that can be Fourier transformed to produce the emitted frequencies, and therefore the masses of the ions present.
