We compared two ionization methods, matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and nanoparticle assisted laser desorption/ionization (Nano-PALDI) mass spectrometry (MS), for the analysis of amino acids derivatized with Py-Tag™ that consists pyrylium-based compound. Py-Tag is a useful stable derivatization reagent due to wide mass differences (using 13C as the sole stable labelling isotope). For Py-Tag labelled lysine, sensitive signals that showed less noise with a ten times higher sensitivity, showed a wider mass difference by Nano-PALDI MS compared to MALDI MS.
