Use of Enzymatic Digestion and Chemical Methylation Followed by Matrix-assisted Laser Desorption/Ionisation (MALDI) Mass Spectrometry to Sequence a 60kDa Commercial Fraction of Cellulose Acetate

Cellulose acetate was characterized by using enzyme in both digestion and chemical derivation and acetolysis. The fragments were normalised and compared on an anhydroglucose scale, using mass spectrometry to identify the different sized fragments. It was determined that at least two sub-populations...
