Session 20, Sunday, February 28th, 1:00 p.m., Room 300
Scientists , companies, and students in mass spectroscopy are always striving to reach new frontiers and breakthroughs in the industry and Sunday afternoon’s session by ACS Division of Analytical Chemistry , “New Frontiers in Mass Spectrometric Analysis of Proteins,” will feature five such presentations.
Heather Desaire, from Kansas University, arranged this session and will start it off with her opening remarks on the topic and what kind of information will be presented.
The first presentation on this interesting topic will be given by Richard W. Vachet, of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Vanessa L. Mendoza, and Shaynah Browne. The talk, “Structural Characterization of Pre-Amyloid Protein Oligomers Using Covalent Labeling and Mass Spectrometry,” will take place from 1:05-1:35 p.m.
Following this presention will be, “Developing Mass Spectrometry-based Tools for Biomarker Discovery in Neurodegenerative Diseases,” from 1:40-2:10 p.m. Lingjun Li, from the Unversity of Wisconsin, will be the main presentor of this topic with credit also going to Xin Wei, Robert Cunningham, Paige Jany, Feng Xiang, Allen Herbst, Albee Messing, and Judd Aiken.
“High-Throughput Pipeline for Discovery-to Targeted Analysis of Topology and Function in Integral Membrane Proteins,” will be given next by Christine C. Wu from the Universtiy of Colorado School of Medicine. Wu’s presentation will start at 2:15 p.m. and end around 2:45 p.m.
The fourth presentation will be given by Gavin E. Reid, of Michigan State University. His discussion entitled, “Understanding and Controlling Gas-phase Ion Chemistry to Improve the Analytical Capabilities of Biological Mass Spectrometry for Phosphoproteome Analysis,” will start at 2:50 p.m and end at 3:20 p.m.
Last, but certainly not least, is the presentation from the session organizer, Heather Desaire. Desaire’s presention, “Emerging Strategies for Facilitating Glycoprotein Analysis,” will surely be intriguing. Overall, this session sounds like a great start to what will be an eventful and informative Pittcon 2010.
Getting accurate IR spectra on monolayer of molecules
April 18th 2024Creating uniform and repeatable monolayers is incredibly important for both scientific pursuits as well as the manufacturing of products in semiconductor, biotechnology, and. other industries. However, measuring monolayers and functionalized surfaces directly is. difficult, and many rely on a variety of characterization techniques that when used together can provide some degree of confidence. By combining non-contact atomic force microscopy (AFM) and IR spectroscopy, IR PiFM provides sensitive and accurate analysis of sub-monolayer of molecules without the concern of tip-sample cross contamination. Dr. Sung Park, Molecular Vista, joined Spectroscopy to provide insights on how IR PiFM can acquire IR signature of monolayer films due to its unique implementation.
Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy Reveals Influence of Defects on 2D Semiconductor Devices
April 25th 2024A recent study used deep level transient spectroscopy to investigate the electrical response of defect filling and emission in monolayer metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD)-grown materials deposited on complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS)-compatible substrates.
Single Cell and Microplastic Analysis by ICP-MS with Automated Micro-Flow Sample Introduction
April 25th 2024Single cell ICP-MS (scICP-MS) is increasingly seen as a powerful and fast tool for the measurement of elements in individual cells, mainly due to the high sensitivity and selectivity of ICP-MS. Analysis is performed in the same way as single nanoparticle (spICP-MS) analysis, which has become a well-established technique for the analysis of nanoparticles and particles.
