MALDI Mass Spectrometry Imaging (MALDI-MSI): Bridging proteomics and imaging. University of Antwerp
Platform for interdisciplinary isotopic research by means of multi-collector inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry Ghent University
As a hybrid mass spectrometer, MC-ICPMS combines an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) plasma source, an energy filter, a magnetic sector analyzer, and multiple collectors for the measurement of ions. The ions are produced by introducing the sample into an inductively coupled plasma which strips off electrons thereby creating positively charged ions. These ions are accelerated across an electrical potential gradient (up to 10 KV) and focused ...
Data Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry to Mine Human Stem Cell Histone Epigenetics Ghent University
Epigenetic modifications are essential in the regulation of many biological processes. The histone proteins that are intimately associated with DNA to form the chromatin are pivotal substrates herein. Here, we will apply bottom-up mass spectrometry data independent acquisition strategies to map thousands of PTM in a quantitative manner and to generate a first birdU+2019s eye view of the so-called U+201Chistone codeU+201D.
Spreading excellence and widening participation in support of mass spectrometry and related techniques in Health, the Environment, and Food Analysis (MASSTWIN). University of Antwerp
Detection of steroids by fast gas chromatography triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (GC-QqQ) Ghent University
The use of performance enhancing drugs in sports is prohibited. For the detection of
misuse of such substances gas chromatography or liquid chromatography coupled
to mass spectrometry are the most frequently used detection techniques. In this
work the development and validation of a fast gas chromatography tandem mass
spectrometric method for the detection of a wide range of doping agents was
developed and ...
Chromatography / mass spectrometry measuring platform for plant, animal and food / feed Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food
This project is a methodological measurement platform rather than a specific research project. Through long-term investments in equipment, personnel and know-how around chromatography / mass spectrometry, ILVO aims to leverage its research capacity. A related goal is that all research groups at ILVO can have easy access to the analysis capacity and the expertise of the platform. The platform creates ...
