Ion-Pair-Free Capillary HILIC-MS for Sensitive Nucleic Acid Analysis and RNA Modification Mapping

Mass spectrometry (MS)-based nucleic acid analysis provides direct chemical evidence for oligonucleotide sequence, composition, and modifications. However, oligonucleotide LC-MS analysis commonly relies on ion-pairing reversed-phase liquid chromatography (IP-RPLC). Although IP-RPLC provides strong retention and high-resolution separation of highly charged nucleic acids, ion-pairing reagents can…
