Overview
The Mass Spectrometry Core provides both proteomics and metabolomics services through the untargeted and targeted analysis of cells, culture medium, plants, tissue, urine, blood, serum, plasma, and feces. In addition to LC-MS analysis, services include sample processing. Specific for proteomics, staff perform peptide fractionation, protein identification via LC-MS, label-free quantitation, isotope label-based (e.g. TMT labeling or iTRAQ labeling) quantitation, post-translational modification mapping and intact protein characterization. The lab is comprehensively involved in the execution of projects including protocol development, sample preparation, method development, and data acquisition and processing.
