We have developed surface treatment techniques utilising radiofrequency current cold argon plasmas (RF-CAP) for non-enzymatic digestion of macromolecules, exemplified here with peptides and proteins of varying sizes. These plasmas are able to rapidly digest condensed-phase macromolecules with minimal sample preparation, producing predictable fragments visible by LC-MS analysis.
