Bruker and Agilent both offer a rather nice ESI-based microtof
(semi)accurate mass spectrometer with specs to around 1-3ppm amu. We are
considering hooking one up to our forthcoming 500MHz Bruker Avance LCNMR
system for aiding and abetting molecular structural characterisation. Does
anyone have any practical experience with either instrument integrated with
a Bruker (or Varian) NMR system, and would they care to share their opinions
on any aspects of their use? In particular, any drift problems over the
course on an LC run? Problems with ionisation for certain compound classes?
MS won't talk to the NMR? Sensational, just plug and play and spit out
molecular structures like on CSI?
Thanks in advance for any feedback.
