Abstract
Many applications in the study of metabolics and proteomics require measurements on peptides and small molecules with high resolving power and mass accuracy. These are often present in complex mixtures and sensitivity over a relatively broad mass range, speed of analysis, reliability, and ease of use are very important. The present invention is a time-of-flight mass spectrometer providing optimum performance for these and similar applications.
