Abstract

Microflow porous graphitized carbon liquid chromatography (PGC-LC) combined with negative mode ionization mass spectrometry (MS) provides high resolution separation and identification of reduced native N-glycan structural isomers. However, insufficient spray quality and low ionization efficiency of N-glycans present challenges for negative mode electrospray. Here, we evaluated the performance of a recently developed multinozzle electrospray source (MnESI) and accompanying M3 emitter for microflow PGC-LC-MS analysis of N-glycans in negative mode. In comparison to a standard electrospray ionization source, the MnESI with an M3 emitter improves signal intensity, identification, quantification, and resolution of structural isomers to accommodate low-input samples.
