Abstract

Mass tagging methods are provided that lead to mass spectrometer detection sensitivities and molecular discriminations that are improved over other methods. In particular the methods are useful for discriminating tagged molecules and fragments of molecules from chemical noise in the mass spectrum. These mass tagging methods are useful for oligomer sequencing, determining the relative abundances of molecules from different samples, and identifying individual molecules or chemical processing steps in combinatorial chemical libraries. The methods provided are useful for the simultaneous analysis of multiple molecules and reaction mixtures by mass spectrometric methods.
