Mass Spectrometer With Interleaved Acquistion

摘要

A method of mass spectrometry is disclosed comprising passing ions through a first stage and a second stage of a mass spectrometer and monitoring a first ion acquisition for a first dwell time extending from a time T1 to a time T1+Tdwell1. The method further comprises reconfiguring the mass spectrometer or one or more components of the mass spectrometer to monitor a second ion acquisition and setting the first stage to transmit ions of the second ion acquisition at a time T, wherein TT1+Tdwell1 and determining the time T based on a known or calculated ion transit time through one or more regions or components of the mass spectrometer disposed downstream of the first stage

1. A method of mass spectrometry comprising:
passing ions through a first stage and a second stage of a mass spectrometer; monitoring a first ion acquisition for a first dwell time extending from a time T1 to a time T1+Tdwell1; reconfiguring said mass spectrometer or one or more components of said mass spectrometer to monitor a second ion acquisition; and setting said first stage to transmit ions of the second ion acquisition at a time T, wherein TT1+Tdwell1; the method further comprising determining said time T based on a known or calculated ion transit time through one or more regions or components of said mass spectrometer disposed downstream of said first stage.
