ASMS Plenary Lectures
Both of these Plenary session talks will take place in Hall D, ground level.
Sunday’s plenary session opens with a welcome talk from ASMS vice president for programs, Richard A. Yost. Following Yost, Lisa Shipley, vice president and global head of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and drug metabolism at Merck, will give a plenary session talk titled “Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics & Drug Metabolism.” The talk begins at 6:45.
Later in the week, Larry Bowers of LD Bowers, LLC will speak at another plenary session on Thursday at 4:45 pm. Bowers is well known for his work fighting sports doping during his tenure as the chief scientific officer of the US Anti-Doping Agency. The title of Bowers’ talk is “The Fight Against Doping: From Strychnine to Turinabol.” Richard A. Yost will host the session.
Both of these plenary session talks will take place in Hall D, ground level.
The Next Frontier for Mass Spectrometry: Maximizing Ion Utilization
January 20th 2025In this podcast, Daniel DeBord, CTO of MOBILion Systems, describes a new high resolution mass spectrometry approach that promises to increase speed and sensitivity in omics applications. MOBILion recently introduced the PAMAF mode of operation, which stands for parallel accumulation with mobility aligned fragmentation. It substantially increases the fraction of ions used for mass spectrometry analysis by replacing the functionality of the quadrupole with high resolution ion mobility. Listen to learn more about this exciting new development.
Liquid Chromatography to Analyze Vitamin D Proteins in Psoriasis Patients
January 21st 2025Can a protein involved in delivering Vitamin D to target tissues have an altered serum profile in psoriasis patients with cardiovascular disease? Researchers used liquid chromatography (LC) to help find out.
The Complexity of Oligonucleotide Separations
January 9th 2025Peter Pellegrinelli, Applications Specialist at Advanced Materials Technology (AMT) explains the complexity of oligonucleotide separations due to the unique chemical properties of these molecules. Issues such as varying length, sequence complexity, and hydrophilic-hydrophobic characteristics make efficient separations difficult. Separation scientists are addressing these challenges by modifying mobile phase compositions, using varying ion-pairing reagents, and exploring alternative separation modes like HILIC and ion-exchange chromatography. Due to these complexities, AMT has introduced the HALO® OLIGO column, which offers high-resolution, fast separations through its innovative Fused-Core® technology and high pH stability. Alongside explaining the new column, Peter looks to the future of these separations and what is next to come.
A Guide To Finding the Ideal Syringe and Needle
January 20th 2025Hamilton has produced a series of reference guides to assist science professionals in finding the best-suited products and configurations for their applications. The Syringe and Needle Reference Guide provides detailed information on Hamilton Company’s full portfolio of syringes and needles. Everything from cleaning and preventative maintenance to individual part numbers are available for review. It also includes selection charts to help you choose between syringe terminations like cemented needles and luer tips.
