Direct MALDI-TOF MS analysis of oligonucleotides on solid support through a photolabile linker

Nucleosides Nucleotides Nucleic Acids. 2001 Apr-Jul;20(4-7):963-6. doi: 10.1081/NCN-100002469.

Abstract

MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry was used to analyze oligonucleotides still anchored to long-chain alkylamine controlled-pore glass (LCAA-CPG) through a photolabile linker. This technique is useful to follow supported chemical reactions in real time and monitor by-products formation.
