We performed computer simulations to improve transmission efficiencies of a dual ion funnel system implemented onan FT-ICR MS. We found that the low m/z range from 50 to 150 could be significantly improved by operating the two ion funnelsat different RF amplitudes. These new operational conditions could be applied to analyze metabolome samples, whichrequire high sensitivity in the m/z range from 50 to 1,000.
