MALDI TOF/TOF mass spectrometers are used to reveal amino acid sequence of peptides using post-source decay or high energy collision-induced dissociation (further use see mass spectrometry). MALDI-TOF have been used to characterise post-translational modifications. For example, it has been widely applied to study protein methylation and ...
Diagnostic microbiology is the study of microbial identification. Since the discovery of the germ theory of disease , scientists have been finding ways to harvest specific organisms. Using methods such as differential media or genome sequencing , physicians and scientists can observe novel functions in organisms for more effective and accurate ...
The original MALDESI design was implemented using common organic matrices, similar to those used in MALDI, along with a UV laser. The current MALDESI source employs endogenous water or a thin layer of exogenously deposited ice as the energy-absorbing matrix where O-H symmetric and asymmetric stretching bonds are resonantly excited by a mid-IR ...
It is a variation of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In MALDI, the sample is mixed with a matrix material and applied to a metal plate before irradiation by a laser, [ 3 ] whereas in SELDI, proteins of interest in a sample become bound to a surface before MS analysis.
A typical workflow of a peptide mass fingerprinting experiment. Peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF), also known as protein fingerprinting, is an analytical technique for protein identification in which the unknown protein of interest is first cleaved into smaller peptides, whose absolute masses can be accurately measured with a mass spectrometer such as MALDI-TOF or ESI-TOF.

(The Center Square) – There's millions in federal funds for residential solar installation, if only Pennsylvanians could access it. The House Energy Committee heard testimony last week in ...
Target for MALDI imaging with two conductive-surface microscope slides. Sample preparation is a critical step in imaging spectroscopy. Scientists take thin tissue slices mounted on conductive microscope slides and apply a suitable MALDI matrix to the tissue, either manually or automatically.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Zee Spearman scored 18 points, including a basket with 12 seconds left, to lead No. 19 Tennessee to an 80-76 win over No. 5 UConn on Thursday night.
