The microchips intended
for mass spectrometry analysis had to be prepared in bigger batches, as there was no point spending time suiting up and using the cleanroom for just a single device at a time.
And after just a handful of developmental phases the researchers created a microreactor that can be used for
mass spectrometry analysis.
The team then used the robotic arm to model the surfaces, probe specific regions, and see if samples collected were sufficient for
mass spectrometry analysis.
Through
the mass spectrometry analysis of Zika virus - infected glioblastoma cells, scientists also identified the presence of digoxin, a molecule which induced the death of tumoral cells of skin and breast cancer in previous experiments.
In this program Dr Whistler is the lead scientist on several gene expression and proteomic studies, and has extensive experience in setting up
mass spectrometry analysis, particularly SELDI - TOF.
Gabb and Blake targeted 55 potential endocrine - disrupting and asthma - associated chemicals from a prior study that used gas chromatography -
mass spectrometry analysis to measure the levels of these chemicals in consumer products.
«A key aspect of this study was the use of high - resolution metabolomic tools based on mass spectrometry,» said Facundo M. Fernández, a professor in the School of Chemistry and Biochemistry, whose lab ran
the mass spectrometry analysis.
In this study, we have used a multidimensional approach including high - magnification and super-resolution microscopy, cerebro - spinal fluid (CSF)
mass spectrometry analysis and ELISA to investigate the Aβ pathology and its associated cognitive impairments, in a novel transgenic rat model overexpressing human APP.
Methods: The researchers used capillary liquid chromatography -
mass spectrometry analyses to analyze the proteomes of Salmonella mutant strains lacking specific RNA - binding proteins that mediate the translation of RNA into protein (post-transcriptional control) and the parent strain grown under four different conditions.
