Abstract

Provided is a method for characterizing a molecule by mass spectrometry, which molecule comprises one or more free amino groups, which method comprises: (a) reacting one or more free amino groups in the molecule with a mass tag reagent comprising a reactive functionality capable of reacting with an amino group, and a tertiary amino group linked to the reactive functionality; and (b) characterizing the molecule by mass spectrometry.
