Technical Principles
The core of the High-Resolution Orbitrap Full-Scan Identification Technology lies in the precise integration of the unique Orbitrap mass analyzer structure with its ion motion properties, offering atomic-level resolution for phosphorylation modification research. The Orbitrap analyzer consists of a spindle-shaped central electrode and symmetric outer semi-electrodes, forming an electrostatic field that allows ions to oscillate freely. Ions move along a spiral path under the central electrode's electrostatic attraction, akin to a tightly wound coil around the spindle. Only the axial oscillation frequency is used for mass analysis, and this physical feature guarantees ultra-high resolution and mass precision.
By performing real-time Fourier Transform to analyze ion oscillation frequencies, the system converts time-domain signals into high-resolution mass spectra, ensuring the accurate capture of each ion's mass information. In full-scan mode, all parent ion information is collected unbiasedly, with a dynamic exclusion strategy minimizing data redundancy. This design supports the broad detection of phosphorylation peptides in complex samples and ensures the complete capture of low-abundance modification sites through multi-stage mass spectrometry triggering mechanisms.

While the high-resolution mode moderately impacts acquisition speed, Orbitrap technology optimizes electrostatic field stability and signal processing algorithms, maintaining sub-ppm level mass precision and efficiently distinguishing neutral loss features in phosphorylation, isomers, and neighboring sites (such as Ser/Thr). This makes it an ideal platform for post-translational modification studies, particularly for dynamic phosphorylation network analysis.
