Graphical Abstract

Unterscheidung gelungen: Der N-Hydroxysuccinimidester von HCCA (α-Cyan-4-hydroxyzimtsäure) wurde als Markierungsmittel genutzt, um das MALDI-MS-Signal bestimmter, gering konzentrierter Peptide in einer aus Cytochrom c erhaltenen proteolytischen Mischung relativ zu den Signalen anderer Peptide zu verstärken. Der erwünschte Effekt trat nur bei der neutralen MALDI-Matrix HCCE (dem Methylester von HCCA) auf (siehe Massenspektren).
