Book excerpt: Provides a comprehensive description of mass spectrometry basics, applications, and perspectives Mass spectrometry is a modern analytical technique, allowing for fast and ultrasensitive detection and identification of chemical species. It can serve for analysis of narcotics, counterfeit medicines, components of explosives, but also in clinical chemistry, forensic research and anti-doping analysis, for identification of clinically relevant molecules as biomarkers of various diseases. This book describes everything readers need to know about mass spectrometry—from the instrumentation to the theory and applications. It looks at all aspects of mass spectrometry, including inorganic, organic, forensic, and biological MS (paying special attention to various methodologies and data interpretation). It also contains a list of key terms for easier and faster understanding of the material by newcomers to the subject and test questions to assist lecturers. Knowing how crucial it is for young researchers to fully understand both the power of mass spectrometry and the importance of other complementary methodologies, Mass Spectrometry: An Applied Approach teaches that it should be used in conjunction with other techniques such as NMR, pharmacological tests, structural identification, molecular biology, in order to reveal the true function(s) of the identified molecule.

Book Proceedings of the First Joint Services Workshop on Biological Mass Spectrometry  28 30 July 1997  Baltimore  Maryland

Download or read book Proceedings of the First Joint Services Workshop on Biological Mass Spectrometry 28 30 July 1997 Baltimore Maryland written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first Joint Services Workshop on Biological Mass Spectrometry was held 28-30 July 1997, at the Hyatt Regency, Baltimore, MD. The workshop was organized by the U.S. Army Edgewood Research, Development, and Engineering Center (ERDEC) and co-sponsored by the U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force. The overall objective of the workshop was to bring together experts and practitioners for a review of the state-of-the-art in biological mass spectrometry and related technologies to serve as the basis for the generation of a program strategy for the development of next-generation biological mass spectrometers. Such mass spectrometer systems will have significant impact not only on chemical/biological defense but also on environmental and food monitoring, the health industry, and various research and industrial endeavors. The workshop addressed a range of issues related to the development of automated, integrated mass spectrometers based on leading edge methodologies for the characterization, analysis, and identification of biological materials. Particular attention was given to applications of electrospray ionization (ESI) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI), interface of separation methods, biological sample handling/processing, and potential biomarker classes. These Proceedings compile summaries of a majority of technical presentations made during the conference portion of the workshop.
