Purpose: Increase the per scan signal to noise (S/N) ratio for electron transfer dissociation (ETD) spectra acquired in a Thermo ScientificTMOrbitrapTManalyzer of a hybrid quadrupolemass filter –Orbitrap-quadrupolelinear ion trap (LIT) instrument.
Methods: Vary the ETD scan functions by changing the pre-reaction (starting) locations of the precursor and reagent and the order in which they are injected into high pressure cell (HPC) of the dual cell LIT.
Results: A three-fold or greater improvement in precursor capacity is realized when the precursor is injected and sequestered into the center section of the HPC.
