    Mass spectrometry is a way for us to pinpoint a substance in sample on the groundwork of mass. The method of mass spectrometry has continued to be used by scientist on small and medium sized molecules. There are many examples to where mass spectrometry is used such as foodstuff control, doping and drug tests. The usage of mass spectrometry for macromolecules has attracted many scientists. Even though macromolecules are large compared to normal sized molecules, they are still very small structures. To measure the mass of ions, proteins, is to…

    Mass spectroscopy is a method used in science and industry in order to obtain the masses and relative concentrations of atoms and molecules and to detect isotopes in a sample based on their masses. In order to do this the method requires an instrument called the ‘mass spectrometer’, of which, is able extract accurate information of the relative masses of isotopes and their relative abundance.…

    According to our report, food toxins are chemicals that are naturally produced by living organisms. These are not harmful to the organisms themselves but may be toxic to other creatures, including humans, when eaten. Regardless of measures taken by regulators and food producers to protect consumers from natural food toxins, consumption of small levels of these materials is unavoidable. The countries across the globe mostly prefer GC-MS and LC-MS (Gas/liquid chromatography-Mass spectrometry) for detecting food toxins. In chromatography, the difference in the chemical properties among molecules in a mixture promotes separation of the molecules. On the other hand, mass spectrometer captures, ionizes, accelerates, deflects, and detects the ionized molecules separately using their mass-to-charge ratio. Owing to the high specificity and global acceptance of the method, GC-MS and LC-MS is dominating the methods for food toxin testing.…

    Mass spectrometry can help determine the molecular formula and weight of a compound as well as provide isotope abundance data. Within a magnetic field the angle of deflection of charged particles is used to discover the relative masses of molecular fragments and ions. Several peaks are due to the contribution of isotopes. An isotope refers to an atom having the same atomic number but a different number of neutrons, subtracting or adding mass. The mass spectrum of methylene chloride has a base peak at m/z=49 consisting of the most abundant ion at 100% abundance. It also has a molecular ion peak at m/z=84 consisting of the molecular weight of methylene chloride at 80% abundance. By subtracting the base peak from the molecular ion peak, it can be determined that the resulting 35 corresponds to 35Cl. The difference of other molecular fragments can be looked at to verify chlorine’s presence such as 86(m/z)–51(m/z)=35 and 86(m/z)–49(m/z)=37, corresponding to the 37Cl isotope. The [M+2] rule also identifies the 37Cl isotope when looking at m/z=84, 86 and 86, 88. Each m/z peak can represent a variety of different molecular mass fragments. The base peak at m/z=49 has a molecular fragment of [ClCH2]+ and contributing isotopes [37ClC]+ and [Cl13CH]+. The peak at m/z=51 is composed of isotopes including [37ClCH2]+ and [37Cl13CH]+. The molecular ion peak at m/z=84 lacks a molecular fragment but shows due to the loss of one valence electron: [Cl2CH2]+. It also has isotope fragments of [Cl213CH]+ and [37Cl2C]+. The peak at m/z=86 is composed of isotopes including [37ClClCH2]+, [37ClCl13CH]+, and [37Cl2C]+. Finally, the last molecular peak at m/z=88 has these corresponding isotopes [37Cl2CH2]+ and [37Cl213CH]+. The peaks m/z=86 and 88 only have 60% and 20% abundance respectively, since both peaks are the results of isotopes. The 37Cl isotope has a 24% abundance naturally and 13C has a 1% abundance naturally. These low abundance percentages contribute to the smaller intensities…
