AbstractThe analysis of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) by a middle-down approach is a growing field that attracts the attention of many researchers and biopharma companies. Usually, liquid fractionation techniques are used to separate mAbs polypeptides chains before mass spectrometry (MS) analysis. Gas-phase fractionation techniques such as high-field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) can replace liquid-based separations and reduce both analysis time and cost. Here, we present a rapid FAIMS tandem MS method capable of characterizing the polypeptide sequence of mAbs light (Lc) and heavy (Hc) chains in an unprecedented, easy, and fast fashion. This new method uses commercially available instruments and takes ∼ 24 minutes —40-60% faster than regular LC-MS/MS analysis — to acquire fragmentation data using different dissociation methods.

Gangliosides are classified as acidic glycosphingolipids, containing ceramide moieties and oligosaccharide chains with one or multiple sialic acid residue(s). The presence of multiple sialylation sites gives rise to highly diverse isomeric structures with distinct biological roles. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization imaging mass spectrometry (MALDI IMS) enables the untargeted spatial analysis of gangliosides, among other biomolecules, directly from tissue sections. Integrating trapped ion mobility mass spectrometry (TIMS), a gas-phase separation technology, with MALDI IMS allows for the investi-gation of isomeric lipid structures in situ. Here we demonstrate the gas-phase separation of disialoganglioside isomers GD1a and GD1b that differ in the position of a sialic acid residue, in a standard mixture of both isomers, a total ganglioside extract, and directly from thin tissue sections. The unique spatial distributions of GD1a/b (d36:1) and GD1a/b (d38:1) were deter-mined from rat hippocampus, as well as in a spinal cord tissue section.
