Metallomics: Analysis and Applications
This Wednsday morning session will be presided over by Professor Feldmann of the University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, Great Britain.
Room B13 (Hall B1)11:00
This Wednsday morning session will be presided over by Professor Feldmann of the University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, Great Britain.
The first presentation in the session will be given by Michael W. W. Adams of the University of Georgia, Athens, USA. Adams will discuss defining the metalloproteomes of microorganisms.
Next, Søren Husted of the University of Copenhagen, Denmark, will present a talk titled ‘Metallomics Approaches in Plant Science’.
The next presentation, given by Wolf D. Lehmann of the German Cancer Research Centre, Heidelberg, Germany, is titled ‘ICP-MS Enforces Quantitative Phosphoproteomics by LC–MS’.
Claudia Swart of The Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt, Braunschweig, Germany, will then present a talk on the quantification of Se and Fe containing biomolecules using HPLC-ID-ICP-MS. Her presentation will discuss inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) in combination with isotope dilution (ID) as the most promising approach for the quantitative determination of metalloproteins in biological samples.
The final presentation in the session will be given by the chair, Professor Jörg Feldmann of the University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, Great Britain, and is titled ‘Metallomics: opportunities and pitfalls’. Feldmann’s talk will give an overview about the newly emerging OMICS field of ‘Metallomics’ and how people define this area of interest in their own study.
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.
Metabolomics Analysis of Low Birth-Weight Infants Using UHPLC-MS/MS Following Lipid Emulsion
January 10th 2025A recent study aimed to directly compare the changes in serum metabolites among very low birth-rate (VLBW) infants following the administration of the soybean oil-based lipid emulsion and soybean oil, medium-chain triglycerides, olive oil, and fish oil (SMOF) lipid emulsion using untargeted metabolomics techniques.
Analyzing New Drug Modalities: An ISC 2024 Interview with Kelly Zhang
January 10th 2025At ISC 2024 in Liverpool, United Kingdom, LCGC International interviewed Kelly Zhang of Genentech about her work analyzing new drug modalities, such as mRNA, oligonucleotides, peptides, and cell and gene therapies.
