This month's Technology Forum looks at the topic of general industry trends and the issues surrounding them. Joining us for this discussion are Kevin McLaughlin, with Shimadzu Scientific Instruments, Vanaja Sivakumar, with SPEX CertiPrep, Inc., and Eric Schmidt, with Ahura Scientific, Inc.
Enabling targeted quantitative proteomics applications and hypothesis-driven inquiries will help researchers to understand how proteins function in living systems. The discovery and validation of small molecule and protein-based biomarkers, and the eventual translation of these discoveries from the research lab to the clinic, involves robust mass spectrometry (MS) systems and software that make it easier for technicians to perform routine sample analyses on liquid chromatography (LC)–MS-MS systems, which continue to be used in an increasing number of both protein and small molecule analysis applications.
Welcome to the May issue of The Wavelength. This month's edition looks at emerging trends in mass spectrometry in an interview with Jennifer Krone, product manager LC-MS with Hitachi High Technologies America, Inc. (Dallas, Texas).
How much will EPA regulations for As testing affect the ICP-MS market? To a large extent? not too much? Not as much as expected? Not at all?
How is the spectroscopy industry doing this year? This month, our roundtable participants analyze trends in the industry based on their expertise. This month?s discussion includes John Carroll, managing partner at Cadrai Technology Group, and Emil Ciurczak, chief technical officer at Cadrai Technology Group, and member of Spectroscopy?s Editorial Advisory Board.
