Coupling Online Size Exclusion Chromatography with Charge Detection-Mass Spectrometry Using Hadamard Transform Multiplexing.

Charge detection mass spectrometry (CD-MS) is a powerful technique for the analysis of large, heterogeneous biomolecules. By directly measuring the charge states of individual ions, CD-MS can measure the masses from spectra where conventional deconvolution approaches fail due to the lack of isotopic resolution or distinguishable charge states. However, CD-MS is inherently slow because hundreds or thousands of spectra need to be collected to produce adequate ion statistics.
