Collection: Mass Spectrometry (MS) Reagents

Mass Spectrometry (MS) Reagents — includes small organic compounds such as hydroxybenzoic acid derivatives, substituted cinnamic acids, and aromatic heterocyclic compounds that function as matrices or supporting reagents for mass spectrometry analysis. These compounds are selected for their ability to absorb laser energy and assist in the sample ionization process.

Mass Spectrometry (MS) Reagents are used by researchers in proteomics, analytical chemistry, and materials science as matrices in the MALDI-TOF technique for analyzing proteins, peptides, and polymers, as well as derivatization reagents to improve the sensitivity of target compound detection. Selecting the appropriate matrix affects the quality of cocrystallization with the analyte and the resolution of the resulting spectrum. These reagents also support the development of compound identification methods in research laboratories and quality control.

Example products in this collection: TCI A0317 89-57-6 5-Aminosalicylic Acid, TCI C0002 331-39-5 Caffeic Acid, TCI A0418 580-17-6 3-Aminoquinoline, TCI C0287 321-14-2 5-Chlorosalicylic Acid, TCI A0425 2349-67-9 2-Amino-5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole, TCI C1297 5331-91-9 5-Chloro-2-mercaptobenzothiazole, TCI T1888 480-66-0 2',4',6'-Trihydroxyacetophenone Monohydrate, TCI C1768 28166-41-8 alpha-Cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic Acid.

Pay attention to the purity level and crystal form of the reagent, as these affect the results of cocrystallization with the analyte, and match the matrix type to the molecular weight and properties of the sample to be analyzed. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
