Exploring the influence of ion heating on the accuracy of collision cross-section measurements using a traveling-wave ion mobility device
Ion mobility-mass spectrometry measurements are regularly used in biological chemistry for many applications. This hot paper from Brandon Ruotolo and colleagues provides useful descriptions of important experimental parameters that affect ion mobility resolution and overall performance, and links this to theory. One referee commented that this will “be a very useful paper especially to students and researchers who will be using the new generation IM-MS instruments”.
