Nanoelectrospray mass spectrometry, the infusion at low flow rates of unseparated peptide mixtures representing protein proteolytic digests into an electrospray ionization mass spectrometer (MS), has been shown to be a suitable method for the analysis of small amounts of proteins. However, the current technique is time consuming, tedious, and difficult to automate. We used microfabrication technologies to construct a device for the sequential infusion of different peptide samples into an electrospray ionization MS without the need for sample manipulation. In this device, etched sample and buffer reservoirs are connected via etched channels to microelectrospray ion source. Peptide samples, typically unseparated tryptic digests of proteins, are applied to different reservoirs. A flow of liquid originating from a specific reservoir is generated and selectively directed toward the microsprayer and the MS by electroosmotic pumping. The analyte proteins are identified by searching sequence databases with the information contained in the collision-induced spectra of selected peptides. With this system, we have achieved a limit of detection in the low femtomoles per microliter range for peptide standards. We also show that samples deposited in different reservoirs can be sequentially mobilized without cross-contamination and that proteins can be conclusively identified at the low femtomoles per microliter level. The successful coupling online of microfabricated devices to an electrospray ionization MS represents an essential step toward the construction of automated, high-throughput, and high-sensitivity analytical systems.
