ASMS 2019 Breakfast Talk #2
First video from our breakfast workshops at ASMS 2019 Atlanta is live! Video is available on our YouTube channel (link).
Mass Analysis of Peptides and Tryptic Digests of Proteins Tutorial
Another tutorial is available: Mass Analysis of Peptides and Tryptic Digests of Proteins
New Sample Preparation tutorial is live
First MassTech tutorial regarding AP-MALDI sample preparation is published. Please take a look: Sample preparation strategies in MALDI
New posters from IMSC 2018
New posters from IMSC 2018 are available in our Publications section. Please take a look how our colleagues from Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) use our APMALDI(ng) UHR instruments: Atmospheric pressure MALDI imaging Orbitrap MS using a Masstech AP/MALDI UHR ion source Mass Spectrometry Imaging in skin with AP-MALDI and TOF-SIMS
Target Has Been Updated – NG Users Should Take a Look
This is not an April Fool’s joke! Target has been updated to 8.7.2 (for the next-gen versions of the APMALDI). I’ve also added some information on some of the most recent previous versions of Target. These updates are fairly significant, and MassTech advises that all APMALDI (ng) users upgrade to this version of Target, especially those who are running experiments in automated mode. Changelog for 8.7.2: Raster XML autosave has been implemented. Target will save raster xml files periodically during zoom…
AP MALDI, Quantitative Detection and Food Safety
One of our recent customers was Dr. Venkat Panchagnula at the National Chemical Laboratory in Pune, India (I remember the installation well!). In 2017, his team published an article which may be of some interest to AP MALDI users due to the work he did to develop a method of quantitative detection (which was then validated with an LC/MS system). Some of our other recent customers have mentioned interest in this kind of work, and Dr. Venkat was kind enough…
Hello, 2018!
So, as we noted earlier, 2017 ended with a bang. We delivered a significant number of AP MALDIs worldwide and registered further sales of our MT50 mass spectrometer. Thank you to our customers in Peru, France and South Korea for your hospitality and good luck with your new toys! However, we really wanted to note a couple big updates on the website: In the DOWNLOADS section, AP MALDI users should check out the newest version of Target for the AP…
Reports from ASMS 2017 Part 3 of 3
Sorry for the big break between posts, everyone! It’s been a busy end to the year, and to be honest, we haven’t been super prompt on updating the front page of the site. Apologies. We wanted to report one other item from ASMS, and this was the first public announcement of our latest commercial product, our Sub AP MALDI (ng). This product is a bit of a break from our others in that it’s not an atmospheric pressure device. It…
Reports from ASMS 2017 Part 2 of 3
As we continue to work through the interest shown in our AP MALDI next generation sources at ASMS, we would like to highlight another paper that one of our employees (in collaboration with NIH/NIDA-IRP) presented. Titled “High Resolution Tissue Imaging Using Sub-Atmospheric and Atmospheric MALDI Sources”, written by Eugene Moskovets, Shelley Jackson, Ludovic Muller, Damon Barbacci, Albert Schultz, Vladimir Doroshenko and Amina Woods, the work focused on the use of different matrices and different laser wavelengths to improve ion yield…
Reports from ASMS 2017 Part 1 of 3
MassTech’s APMALDI (ng) UHR source was featured in several presentations throughout ASMS 2017. We will be highlighting some of the key discussions in a series of reports from ASMS here on our website. For more details on the papers and for the original posters, you can always get copies from the ASMS website. Bingming Chen, Chuanzi OuYang, Zichuan Tian, Meng Xu and Lingjun Li, University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Pharmacy, Department of Chemistry, Department of Biochemistry, “A High Resolution Atmospheric…
