Proteomics
This Tuesday session will be chaired by Dr Juan Pablo Albar, Proteomics Facility, Centro Nacional de Biotecnologia (CSIC), Madrid, Spain.
Room B13 (Hall B1)14:00
This Tuesday session will be chaired by Dr Juan Pablo Albar, Proteomics Facility, Centro Nacional de Biotecnologia (CSIC), Madrid, Spain.
Dr Liam McDonnell, Leiden University, Leiden, The Netherlands will start the afternoon session by discussing tissue imaging by mass spectrometry. He will explain how by using essentially the same technique but different sample preparation strategies metabolites, lipids, peptides and proteins can be analysed and how spatially correlated analysis, imaging MS, enables the distributions of these biomolecular ions to be simultaneously measured in tissues.
Dr Ulrich Eigner from Labor Limbach, Department of Microbiology, Heidelberg, Germany will follow with a presentation titled “Microbial Identification with MALDI-TOF”. Next up is Ruth Hüttenhain from the Institute of Molecular Systems Biology, ETH Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland who will discuss targeted proteomics for the verification of novel plasma-based biomarkers.
After a short break, Dr Claire E. Eyers from the Michael Barber Centre for Mass Spectrometry, School of Chemistry, University of Manchester, UK will present “Scraping the Barrel: Towards Absolute Quantification of the Complete y Yeast Proteome”. She will be followed by Manuel Fuentes from the Cancer Research Center, Department of Medicine. University of Salamanca-CSIC. Salamanca, Spain who will present “Multiplexed Protein Expression and Purification Platform/Protein Microarrays”.
The day will finish with Dr Juan Pablo Ablar (the chair for this session) who will be talking about proteomics data sharing and reporting/ proteomics standardization.
Best of the Week: Food Analysis, Chemical Migration in Plastic Bottles, STEM Researcher of the Year
December 20th 2024Top articles published this week include the launch of our “From Lab to Table” content series, a Q&A interview about using liquid chromatography–high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC–HRMS) to assess chemical hazards in plastic bottles, and a piece recognizing Brett Paull for being named Tasmanian STEM Researcher of the Year.
Using LC-MS/MS to Measure Testosterone in Dried Blood Spots
December 19th 2024Testosterone measurements are typically performed using serum or plasma, but this presents several logistical challenges, especially for sample collection, storage, and transport. In a recently published article, Yehudah Gruenstein of the University of Miami explored key insights gained from dried blood spot assay validation for testosterone measurement.
Determination of Pharmaceuticals by Capillary HPLC-MS/MS (Dec 2024)
December 19th 2024This application note demonstrates the use of a compact portable capillary liquid chromatograph, the Axcend Focus LC, coupled to an Agilent Ultivo triple quadrupole mass spectrometer for quantitative analysis of pharmaceutical drugs in model aqueous samples.
