When every peptide bond matters, fragmentation is where discovery begins. The <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://lcms.labrulez.com/products/1958">Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Excedion Pro mass spectrometer</a> brings EASY-ETD and HCD together on a single, ultra-high-performance Orbitrap platform—delivering clarity across proteomics, biopharma, and structural biology.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/Thermo_Fisher_Scientific_Fragment_Smarter_See_Deeper_How_the_Orbitrap_Excedion_Pro_Unlocks_EASY_ETD_and_HCD_Fragmentation_79614cedcf.jpg" alt="Thermo Fisher Scientific: Fragment Smarter, See Deeper: How the Orbitrap Excedion Pro Unlocks EASY-ETD and HCD Fragmentation" srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_Thermo_Fisher_Scientific_Fragment_Smarter_See_Deeper_How_the_Orbitrap_Excedion_Pro_Unlocks_EASY_ETD_and_HCD_Fragmentation_79614cedcf.jpg 245w," sizes="100vw" width="1024" height="512"><h3>Two fragmentation technologies, one hybrid advantage</h3><h4>EASY-ETD — gentle by design, powerful by nature</h4>EASY-ETD transfers electrons to peptide/protein ions, breaking the backbone while preserving labile PTMs and fragile linkages, generating c- and z-ions ideal for confident site localization. Especially valuable for: phosphorylation, glycosylation, deamidation, isomer discrimination (Asp/IsoAsp; Leu/IsoLeu), and ADC linker–payload integrity.<h5>Example — isomer discrimination with diagnostic ions</h5>In a UHPLC-HRAM ddMS² peptide-mapping experiment on NISTmAb, EThcD (EASY-ETD + supplemental HCD) produced the ETD-diagnostic c+57 and z–57 ions and unambiguously identified isoAsp in a 23-aa, 3+ deamidated peptide present at 0.18%, with &lt;8 ppm mass error for both signatures (Figure 1). This shows how electron-based fragmentation retains the information needed to resolve subtle isomerization that collision-only methods can miss.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/Thermo_Fisher_Scientific_Fragment_Smarter_See_Deeper_How_the_Orbitrap_Excedion_Pro_Unlocks_EASY_ETD_and_HCD_Fragmentation_2_9750198ab6.jpg" alt="Thermo Fisher Scientific: Fragment Smarter, See Deeper: How the Orbitrap Excedion Pro Unlocks EASY-ETD and HCD Fragmentation: Figure 1: EASY-ETD/EThcD reveals isoAsp with signature ions." srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_Thermo_Fisher_Scientific_Fragment_Smarter_See_Deeper_How_the_Orbitrap_Excedion_Pro_Unlocks_EASY_ETD_and_HCD_Fragmentation_2_9750198ab6.jpg 245w," sizes="100vw" width="1024" height="550">EThcD full-MS² spectrum from a NISTmAb tryptic peptide-mapping run. Zoom-in panels highlight z6–57 and c17+57 confirming isoAsp at 0.18% with &lt;8 ppm error.<h4>HCD — High-Energy Confidence for every workflow</h4>HCD generates rich b- and y-ion spectra for robust sequencing and quantitative reproducibility. With the Excedion Pro’s ultra-high-field Orbitrap (MS² up to 70 Hz) and—on the BioPharma edition—an extended mass range to m/z 12,000, HCD supports full sequence coverage, consistent DIA/DDA quantitation, and confident identification of oxidation, deamidation, and truncation variants. Together, EASY-ETD and HCD provide orthogonal fragmentation—comprehensive coverage and high-confidence confirmation in one analysis.<h3>Why combine EASY-ETD and HCD?</h3><ul><li>PTM localization: EASY-ETD preserves fragile sites; HCD confirms sequence context.</li><li>ADC characterization: EASY-ETD keeps linker–payload intact; HCD supports quant and variant checks.</li><li>Isomer detection: EASY-ETD resolves Asp/IsoAsp; HCD adds complementary evidence.</li><li>Quant proteomics: EASY-ETD maintains structural integrity; HCD delivers reproducible intensity.</li><li>Throughput: Electron-driven fragmentation + fast collision MS² (up to 70 Hz).</li></ul><h3>Applications that push the limits</h3><h4>Biopharma Characterization</h4><ul><li>Map DARs and conjugation sites in ADCs with confidence</li><li>Detect low-level PTMs impacting efficacy</li><li>Combine native intact MS and EThcD mapping for complete characterization</li></ul><img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/Thermo_Fisher_Scientific_Fragment_Smarter_See_Deeper_How_the_Orbitrap_Excedion_Pro_Unlocks_EASY_ETD_and_HCD_Fragmentation_3_04122d5bda.jpg" alt="Thermo Fisher Scientific: Fragment Smarter, See Deeper: How the Orbitrap Excedion Pro Unlocks EASY-ETD and HCD Fragmentation: Figure 2.
