Effective protein characterization depends on the precise isolation and fragmentation of peptide ions within the mass spectrometer, typically coupled with liquid chromatography (LC-MS/MS). In a ...

Originally employed in atomic physics, mass spectrometry is now an indispensable tool in modern science, and importantly medical science. In a new pharmaphorum podcast, web editor Nicole Raleigh spoke ...

To identify specific chemicals or molecules in the life sciences and medical research, scientists often use mass spectrometry (MS), usually paired with liquid chromatography (LC). These technologies ...

For decades, mass spectrometry has been the gold standard in proteomics because of its combination of specificity, sensitivity, high target plex, and lack of requirement for affinity reagents. Yet, ...

Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is prominently used for analyzing elemental composition in individual cells. However, the conventional sample introduction system of ICP-MS causes ...

Roche has begun rolling out a new diagnostics system that aims to bring the gold-standard accuracy of mass spectrometry to the everyday clinical lab. The company received a CE Mark approval in Europe ...

Researchers have developed new analytical methods to rapidly analyze fuels and complex petroleum products by using high-resolution mass spectrometry. U.S. Naval Research Laboratory researcher Mark ...
