We demonstrate the use of capillary zone electrophoresis with an electrokinetic sheath-flow electrospray interface coupled to a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer for the accurate and precise quantification of Leu-enkephalin in a complex mixture using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). Assay time is <6 min, with no re equilibration required between runs. A standard curve of Leu-enkephalin was performed in the presence of a background tryptic digest of bovine albumin. We demonstrate reasonably reproducible peak heights (21% relative standard deviation), retention times (better than 1% relative standard deviation), and robust electrospray quality. Our limit of detection (3 sigma) was 60 pM, which corresponds to the injection of 335 zmol of peptide. This is a 10-20-fold improvement in mass sensitivity than we have obtained by nano HPLC/MRM and substantially better than reported for LC/MS/MS. Further quantification was performed in the presence of stable-isotope-labeled versions of the peptides; under these conditions, linearity was observed across nearly 4 orders of magnitude. The concentration detection limit was 240 pM for the stable-isotope-labeled quantification.
