    摘要: An numerical analysis time which is assigned to mass select one ion species having a specific mass-to-charge ratio mass selected is divided into the first part time and the second part time, and a dipole auxiliary electric field capable of spatially reducing a spread is superimposed in the first part time of the numerical analysis time and a quadrupole auxiliary voltage capable of rapidly emitting ions when position coordinates are large is superimposed in the second part of the time. Therefore, the initial spatial spread is reduced in the first part time and the trajectories of ions is rapidly amplified in the second part time, and the ions are emitted. Thus, the entire mass sweep time can be reduced and a high-resolution numerical analysis can be accelerated.

    摘要: By preventing the trapping efficiency of ions from largely depending on the mass-to-charge ratio, an ion trap mass spectrometer suitable for obtaining a high sensitive mass spectrum is provided. Ions of a specimen to be mass analyzed generated at an external ion source pass through an ion transportation portion and then injected into a space (ion trap volume) between the ring electrode and the end cap electrodes. An RF trap voltage power source applies an RF frequency V.multidot.cos .OMEGA.t between the ring electrode and the end cap electrodes to form a radio frequency electric field in the ion trap volume. The RF trap voltage is changed so that the optimum trap frequency is in inverse proportion to 1/2 power of a mass-to-charge ratio while the ions are being trapped in the radio frequency electric field formed in the ion trap volume.

    摘要: An ion beam having a good converging property and a good quality is provided by satisfying the limitations controlling both angle of dispersion and the width of beam at the same time. The voltage 12d of a repeller electrode 1f in an ion source of electron bombardment type is input to an ion source state monitor 11 and the ion source state monitor 11 output a predicted value 12e of the voltage applied to an extractor electrode 1g to an extractor power source 9. As for the extractor electrode system, the width of a slit in the acceleration electrode 1b is made larger than the width of a slit of the extractor electrode 1g, and the extractor electrode 1g is set in a position apart from the acceleration electrode 1b by the distance nearly equal to the distance between the acceleration electrode 1b and the ion generating region 2a. By doing so, the electric field leaked from the slit of the acceleration electrode 1b to the inside of the ionization chamber 1a expands to the vicinity of the ion generating region. As the result, the ion beam 2 is effectively extracted to pass through the slits in the acceleration electrode 1b and the extractor 1g. The amount of the current passing through the slits is measured with an ion current monitor 8a and the voltage 12f of a converging electrode 1d is adjusted so that the value of the current becomes the maximum.

    摘要: The present invention provides a tandem type mass analysis system capable of carrying out the differential analysis with high efficiency by the tandem type mass analysis. A predetermined number of m/z regions are set up for carrying out the mass analysis with the all ions included therein being dissociated collectively for each m/z region so as to obtain measurement MS2 data. By comparing the measurement MS2 data with reference MS2 data stored in a reference data base, a difference thereof is detected. For the m/z region with a differential component detected, the mass analysis is carried out collectively without dissociation for the all ions included therein so as to obtain measurement MS1 data. By comparing the measurement MS1 data with the reference MS1 data, a difference thereof is detected. From the difference thereof, a parent ion considered to be the differential component factor is presumed for carrying out the mass analysis with the same being dissociated.

    摘要: During the structural analysis of a protein or peptide by tandem mass spectroscopy, a peptide ion derived from a protein that has already been measured and that is expressed in great quantities is avoided as a tandem mass spectroscopy target. A peptide derived from a minute amount of protein, which has heretofore been difficult to analyze, can be automatically determined as a tandem mass spectroscopy target within the real time of measurement. Data concerning a protein that has already been measured and a peptide derived from the protein is automatically stored in an internal database. The stored data is collated with measured data with high accuracy to determine an isotope peak. In this way, the process of selecting a peptide peak that has not been measured as the target for the next tandem analysis can be performed within the real time of measurement and a redundant measurement of peptides derived from the same protein can be avoided. The information contained in the MSn spectrum is effectively utilized in each step of the MSn involving a multi-stage dissociation and mass spectroscopy (MSn), so that the flows for the determination of the next analysis content and the selection of the parent ion for the MSn+1 analysis, for example, can be optimized within the real time of measurement and with high efficiency and accuracy. Thus, a target of concern to the user can be subjected to tandem mass spectroscopy without wasteful measurement.
