Amino Acid Sequence

Met-Arg-Phe-Ala

Application

A marker in an unambiguous method for sequencing tetrapeptides using FAB, MI, and collisional activation spectra in combination.
Met-Arg-Phe-Ala acetate salt has been used as an internal standard in the mass determination of the compounds by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). It has also been used in comparing the laser energy used in nanostructure-initiator mass spectrometry (NIMS) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI).

Recently, steroid hormones quantification in blood showed a promising ability to detect testosterone doping and interesting complementarities with the urinary module of the Athlete Biological Passport (ABP). In this work, an ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS) method was
