Book excerpt: The role of mass spectrometry in the chemical and biological sciences is ever evolving as there is an increasing interest to understand the biomolecular structure and interaction of proteins and their potential impact on human health. To this end, emerging techniques that complement or enhance mass spectrometric capabilities are of significant relevance. While the impact of mass spectrometry in every field (e.g. proteomics, drug development, environmental, crop science, or petrochemical) has varied, increased accessibility of instrumentation and expertise to address relevant issues across disciplines will result in even greater acceptance of this powerful technology. Some compounds may not ionize by a predominant method, electrospray ionization (ESI) or matrix assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI), but recently a number of ionization sources have been developed that further encompass more classes of molecules for mass spectrometric analysis. Limited sample availability is a practical issue which demands lower limits-of-detection. In efforts to address this, devices such as the ion funnel and the air amplifier are being developed to more efficiently transport ions within or into the mass spectrometer (respectively). With continued ionization source and instrumentation improvements, there will undoubtedly be additional physicians, scientists, and engineers who realize the great potential and benefit of using mass spectrometry to address questions related to their particular field of study. This dissertation describes the utilization of Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS), which affords high resolving power and mass measurement accuracy, for the majority of ionization source developments. These ionization source efforts have been directed at improving current and emerging ionization techniques. A method for transporting neutral species for subsequent ionization termed remote analyte sampling, transport and ionization relay (RA.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Annual Report of the Department of Defense (DoD) Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Defense Program, or CBRNDP, provides information in response to several reporting requirements. First, this report is provided in accordance with 50 USC 1523. (The complete reporting requirement is detailed at annex K.) This report is intended to assess: (1) the overall readiness of the Armed Forces to fight in a chemical-biological warfare environment and steps taken and planned to be taken to improve such readiness; and, (2) requirements for the chemical and biological warfare defense program, including requirements for training, detection, and protective equipment, for medical prophylaxis, and for treatment of casualties resulting from use of chemical and biological weapons. This report supplements the DoD Chemical and Biological Defense Program FY05 President's budget, February 2004, which has been submitted to Congress.

Book excerpt: I recently spent a summer as an intern at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. I worked on a project involving the real-time, reagentless, single cell detection of aerosolized pathogens using a novel mass spectrometry approach called Bio-Aerosol Mass Spectrometry (BAMS). Based upon preliminary results showing the differentiation capabilities of BAMS, I would like to explore the development and use of this novel detection system in the context of both environmental and clinical sample pathogen detection. I would also like to explore the broader public health applications that a system such as BAMS might have in terms of infectious disease prevention and control. In order to appreciate the potential of this instrument, I will demonstrate the need for better pathogen detection methods, and outline the instrumentation, data analysis and preliminary results that lead me toward a desire to explore this technology further. I will also discuss potential experiments for the future along with possible problems that may be encountered along the way.
