Notes:
A number of commercial β-lactam antibiotics are investigated by means of cesium ion (Cs+) bombardment in the kinetic energy range 2-35 keV. The relative intensities of the protonated molecules, as well as some of the major fragment ions, are monitored as a function of the Cs+ kinetic energy. The dependence of the intact protonated molecule:fragment ion ratios on the primary-ion kinetic energy is evident in some of the spectra investigated. An attempt is made to interpret these results in terms of existing secondary-ion mass spectrometry data which have been obtained in a different kinetic energy range.
