Abstract
The molecular weights of femtomole quantities of small peptides attached to polystyrene beads have been determined with imaging time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry. The analysis is made possible by the selective clipping of the bond linking the peptide to a bead with trifluoroacetic acid vapor before the secondary ion mass spectrometry assay. The approach can be applied to large numbers of 30- to 60-micrometer polystyrene beads for the direct characterization of massive combinatorial libraries.
