Asymmetric Flow Field Flow Fractionation Coupled with ICP-MS for Speciation Analysis of Plasma Proteins

In this column, we discuss the label-free and stable isotope labeling proteomics approaches that help in biomarker discovery. We also discuss the different enrichment techniques, such as stable isotope labeling by amino acid in cell culture (SILAC), isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ), and tandem mass tags (TMT, that help in measuring low-abundance protein biomarkers.

Ronald Piervincenzi, chief executive officer of the United States Pharmacoepia, focused on how collaboration and component quality can improve worldwide pharmaceutical production standards during a lecture at the Eastern Analytical Symposium (EAS) last month.

Messina Institute of Technology scientists used gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to profile illegal samples of Cannabis sativa L.

Known as “forever chemicals”, PFAS exposure has been linked indirectly and directly to a range of potential health issues. The objective of this study was the development of an optimized sample preparation and LC–MS/MS method for the analysis of PFAS in serum for biomonitoring applications.

Shanghai University of Sport scientists recently developed a doping control method based on gas chromatography combustion isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC/C/IRMS).

Giorgia Purcaro from the University of Liège was interviewed at RAFA 2024 by LCGC International on the benefits of modern multidimensional GC methods to analyze mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbons (MOAH) and mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH).
