Product-Ion spectra produced by high-and low-energy colll· slonally activated dissociation (CAD) of [+ H]+ ions of a series of peptides (Mr 550-2500) have been compared on four-sector and hybrid tandem mass spectrometers, respectively. The fast atom bombardment product-ion spectra ob-tained for the smallest peptide analyzed (methionine-enkephalin) were remarkably similar, but substantial differences In fragmentation were observed for the heavier analytes. For peptides with M,> 1000, more complete sequence Informa-tion was obtained from high-energy CAD on the four-sector Instrument. Nevertheless, low-energy CAD on the hybrid mass spectrometer was able to produce partial sequence Information even for the largest of the peptides compared. Limits of analysis, defined as the least quantities of analyte tor which product-ion spectra of essentially uncompromised quatty could be obtained, were similar (ca. 15 pmoi) for small peptides, but lower limits were achieved for larger peptides (Afr> 1000) with the four-sector Instrument. High-energy CAD spectra were found to be highly reproducible, with qualitatively similar spectra obtained over a wide range of operating conditions. In contrast, It was necessary to care-fully control collision gas pressures and collision energies In order to obtain good reproducible data for low-energy CAD. Experimental procedures for obtaining reproducible spectra with good sensitivity for peptides on the hybrid Instrument are presented.
