By measurement of post-source decay (PSD) product ion mass spectrum, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS) enable mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (MS/MS)-like analysis to obtain structural information. We will explain the basics of MS/MS-like analysis in reflectron mode of MALDI TOFMS by comparing post-source decay product ion mass spectrum acquired by the standard reflectron and the curved field reflectron.
