When life on Earth was first getting started, simple molecules bonded together into the precursors of modern genetic material. A catalyst would have been needed, but enzymes had not yet evolved. One ...

For biologists, seeing is believing. But sometimes biologists have a hard time seeing. One particularly vexing challenge is seeing all the molecules in an intact tissue sample, down to the level of ...

The Chemistry Mass Spectrometry User Facility features a new Bruker AutofleX maX Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometer. This instrument allows for ...

Material engineering involves the creation and design of inventive materials, blending principles from chemistry, physics, and engineering. Mass spectrometry emerges as a vital tool in material ...

In this interview, Chuck DeCarlo from Extrel provides advice on bioreactor monitoring using mass spectrometry and gives an introduction to the MAX300-BIO bioreactor gas analyzer. The manufacturer ...

Mass spectrometry is a go-to method for determining which molecules are in a sample. If security officers are faced with an unknown, possibly dangerous, substance, they don’t want to waste time ...

Field mass spectrometers are constantly being deployed by the API-TOF user community for unique and complex atmospheric measurements. Within this field, Dr Federico Bianchi has found his niche — that ...

Mass spectrometers might not be typical surgical tools, but they are moving closer to the operating room. The goal in using them is to enable surgeons to distinguish a tumor from surrounding healthy ...
