In this study, pentafluorobenzylpyridinium (F-BnPy), which has the highest dissociation energy among the reported benzylpyridinium thermometer ion, is proposed to characterize the internal energy distributions of ions activated by higher energy collisional dissociation (HCD) and ion-trap collision-induced dissociation (CID) during tandem mass spectrometry. The dissociation threshold energies of F-BnPy was determined using quantum chemistry calculations at the CCSD(T)/6-311++G(d,p)//M06-2X-D3/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory, and the appearance energies for ion dissociation in HCD and ion-trap CID were estimated using Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel-Marcus theory. The main differences between HCD and ion-trap CID are the collision energies used and the timescales of collisional activation. For both HCD and ion-trap CID, the average internal energy of the ions increased with increasing collision energy. In contrast, the average value for the internal energy of the ions activated by ion-trap CID was lower than that of ions activated by HCD, probably because of the smaller collisional energy and longer activation time of the ion-trap CID experiments. The reported method will aid in the determination of the optimum tandem mass spectrometry parameters for the analysis of small molecules such as metabolites.

Article Synopsis
- The study developed a portable mass spectrometry technique for accurately measuring tirofiban drug concentrations in blood to enhance patient safety and treatment efficacy.
- The method identified a significant parent ion peak for tirofiban and optimized various parameters, achieving a limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of 10.1 and 33.7 μg·L, respectively.
- Although the technique faced some challenges from blood sample matrix effects, it successfully detected tirofiban in 10 out of 12 clinical samples, demonstrating the need for further optimization and validation to boost sensitivity and stability.

Cyclic peptides have higher stability and better properties as therapeutic agents than their linear peptide analogues. Consequently, intramolecular click chemistry is becoming an increasingly popular method for the synthesis of cyclic peptides from their isomeric linear peptides. However, assessing the purity of these cyclic peptides by mass spectrometry is a significant challenge, as the linear and cyclic peptides have identical masses.

Tandem mass spectrometry (MS) is one of the most effective methods to obtain the structures of organic molecules, enabling the observation of multigenerational ion fragments. Collision-induced dissociation (CID) is currently the most mature technique for mass spectrometry analysis. Ion trap mass spectrometry (ITMS) is favored for on-site detection field, due to its ability of MS analysis with a single trap and its small size.

Background: Analysis of the phytocannabinoids holds significant importance because of their various pharmacological properties and potential therapeutic applications. Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) coupled with electrospray ionization in positive ion mode is employed in this study to describe the collision-induced dissociation (CID) behavior of a series of common phytocannabinoids with the aim of establishing a generalized MS/MS fingerprint.
Materials And Methods: Eight phytocannabinoids, namely, ∆-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD), cannabichromene (CBC), cannabigerol (CBG), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), 11-hydroxy-Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol (11-OH-THC), 6-hydroxy-cannabidiol (6-OH-CBD), and 7-hydroxy-cannabidiol (7-OH-CBD), were studied.

Rationale: ADP-ribosylation is a posttranslational modification whose higher-energy collisional dissociation (HCD) products are dominated by complete or partial modification losses, complicating peptide sequencing and acceptor site localization efforts. We tested whether in-source collision-induced dissociation (CID) performed on a quadrupole-Orbitrap could convert ADPr to the smaller phosphoribose-HO derivative to facilitate HCD-dependent peptide sequencing.
Methods: ADP-ribosyl (ADPr) peptides derived from the human macrophage-like cell line THP-1 were analyzed on a quadrupole-Orbitrap.
