11、tion SuppressionCompounds That Cause Sensitivity Suppression Salts can interfere with ionization and can cluster tocomplicate spectrum (but also aid in identification) Strong bases or quaternary amines can interfere withpositive mode analytes, e.g. Triethylamine (TEA) Acids - Sulfuric/Sulfonic acids

12、 and TFA interfere innegative mode experiments Phosphate buffer and non-volatile ion pairing agents (e.g.SDS) can cause severe suppression and complex spectraDimerization (2M+H+) can occur at highconcentration, leading to non-linearity duringquantitation Dimer Signal at m/z = (MW*2)+1 Can cause non-
