title: Comparison of 252Cf plasma desorption mass spectrometry and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry in identification of simple monoglucosyl conjugates.
abstract: The fast atom bombardment (glycerol) and 252Cf plasma desorption mass spectra of 16 simple monoglucosyl conjugates have been compared. Plasma desorption mass spectrometry, in general, has been found to be the superior technique for characterizing these low molecular weight conjugates because of the relative absence of interfering matrix peaks.
