    摘要: The present disclosure is directed to methods for evaluating system inertness, such as the inertness of a LC or other fluidic system. Some methods are directed to tests wherein the column has been removed prior to injecting a sample including a positive (e.g., metal reacting moiety) control into the system. Some methods can include: (1) repeatedly injecting the sample into a system, the system comprising: fluidic paths wherein interior surfaces of the fluidic paths define wetted surfaces, and wherein at least a portion of the wetted surfaces of the fluidic flow path are coated with an inert coating, wherein the inert coating is inert to at least one analyte in the sample; (2) detecting a value associated with the positive control; and (3) analyzing values associated with the detected positive control to determine system inertness.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a method of digesting a sample comprising protein, the method comprising: adding the sample to an apparatus containing a buffer and a solid support surface comprising a surface coating, wherein the surface coating immobilizes enzyme while reducing undesired interactions between the sample and the solid support surface; immobilizing enzymes on the surface coating for digestion of the protein of the sample; and heating the sample to complete a heat-assisted digestion of the protein.

    摘要: The present disclosure discusses a method of separating a sample (e.g., peptide compound) including coating a flow path of a chromatographic system; injecting the sample into the chromatographic system; flowing the sample through the chromatographic system; separating the sample; and analyzing the separated sample. In some examples, the coating applied to the surfaces defining the flow path is non-binding with respect to the sample—and the separated sample. Consequently, the sample does not bind to the low-binding surface of the coating (e.g., organosilica coating) of the flow path. The applied coating can reduce peak tailing and increase analyte recovery for the sample of the chromatographic system.
