Résumé

Interferences from isobaric and isomeric compounds represent a common problem in liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS). In this paper, in-source purification and chromatographic separation were combined with the aim of identifying isobaric contamination and quantifying accurately a compound despite the presence of an isobaric co-eluted interference. This is achieved by totally fragmenting in-source the precursor ions of the isobaric interference providing then LC-pseudo-MS2 capability, which allows an accurate quantification without the need for optimizing the chromatographic conditions to separate the co-eluted interference. To illustrate this concept, mixtures of tryptic and non-tryptic peptides were used. The ratio of peak areas of the tryptic peptide and its isotopically labelled internal standard was used not only for quantification with an internal standard calibration curve but also to know (1) if an isobaric interference co-eluted with the tryptic peptide; and (2) what is the minimum cone voltage necessary to ensure the complete removal of isobaric interference. This strategy was applied to quantify the tryptic peptide of two standards with known concentrations and, intentionally contaminated with the isobaric interference. The confidence intervals of the concentrations calculated with the internal standard calibration curve were 8.0 ± 0.5 μM (prepared at 8.0 μM) and 15.7 ± 0.5 μM (prepared at 16.1 μM) that confirm the tryptic peptide can be correctly quantified by in-source purification without the need for improving the chromatographic separation from its isobaric interference.
