Abstract
The present invention involves a series of shifting reagents that selectively interact with a targeted functional group of biological molecules, pharmaceutical drugs, small molecules, chemicals, chemical agents, or explosives resulting in a structure selective based drift time shift in the IMS. Additional energy is used to enhance the mobility based separation; in particular, the energy level can be tuned.
