Regarding Emitter Positioning for Nanoflow Electrospray Ionization with a High-Capacity Inlet Capillary Nanoflow electrospray ionization is commonly used for proteomics due to its high sensitivity. Signal intensity, however, is dependent on optimal emitter positioning relative to the mass spectrometer i...

There has recently been another flare up of people bashing quads and saying we should replace them with mobility analysis. I still have a hard time with this argument. The quad has plenty of utility in an instrument with high res mobility. If nothing else it can knock out unwanted charge states.

Data-Driven Optimization of DIA Mass Spectrometry by DO-MS Mass spectrometry (MS) enables specific and accurate quantification of proteins with ever-increasing throughput and sensitivity. Maximizing this potential of MS requires optimizing data acquisition parameters and performing efficient quality control for large datasets. To facilitate these objectives for data-independent acquisition (DIA), we developed a second version of our framework for data-driven optimization of MS methods (DO-MS). The DO-MS app v2.0 (do-ms.slavovlab.net) allows one to optimize and evaluate results from both label-free and multiplexed DIA (plexDIA) and supports optimizations particularly relevant to single-cell proteomics. We demonstrate multiple use cases, including optimization of duty cycle methods, peptide separation, number of survey scans per duty cycle, and quality control of single-cell plexDIA data. DO-MS allows for interactive data display and generation of extensive reports, including publication of quality figures that can be easily shared. The source code is available at github.com/SlavovLab/DO-MS.
