Researchers achieve first signal on the Cryogenic Maldi-FTMS
July 14th, 2007
Researchers at Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) recently achieved first signal on the Cryogenic Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-FTMS) being developed at the school’s Cardiovascular Proteomics Center (CPC). The Fourier transform mass spectrometer is the highest performance instrumentation currently available to those interested in structural characterization of proteins and other biomolecules. “When working to its full capacity, the Cryogenic MALDI-FTMS will greatly enhance how we study and understand disease,” says Peter B. O’Connor, PhD, research associate professor in the Department of Biochemistry at...
