ABSTRACT

A simple procedure for preparing gold-coated silica capillaries for use in electrospray ionization mass spectrometry is described. The tip of the capillary is mechanically tapered to a fine point, and a thin film of gold is vapor deposited on the outer surface following treatment with an organofunctional silane. The performance characteristics of these durable capillaries as continuous infusion sources are examined, and their utility in on-line capillary electrophoresis mass spectrometry is demonstrated.

ABSTRACT

The temporal behavior of FAB mass spectra from glycerol solutions of tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (C14H29-N(CH3)3Br, TTAB) and tetraethylammonium iodide (TEAI) was investigated. FAB spectra of the TTAB solution displayed a continuous decrease in TTA+ with time. Spectra obtained from the TEAI solution were initially invariant for several minutes and then displayed a gradual increase in the relative abundance of TEA+ to a maximum, followed by a precipitous drop in ion intensity. Secondary ion images of droplets of TTAB solution showed that emission of both TTA+ and glycerol secondary ions was homogeneous across the sample. Secondary ion images of droplets of TEAI solution showed heterogeneous and segregated emission of both TEA+ and protonated glycerol. Results from the FAB spectra and the secondary ion images were correlated and rationalized on the basis of surface tension-induced mass transport and matrix evaporation.
