| LTQ XL with ETD wins
Silver Award at Pittcon 2007 |
|
| Available for the first
time on a linear ion trap mass spectrometer, ETD provides
important new peptide structural information not available
from conventional collisionally induced dissociation (CID)
methods. ETD is a new fragmentation technique that
significantly improves protein characterization,
post-translational modification (PTM) analysis and top-down or
middle-down sequencing of proteins and peptides. The new
Thermo Scientific LTQ XL is the only mass spectrometer that
offers multiple dissociation techniques, Pulsed Q Dissociation
(PQD), ETD and CID. |

| Tip
of the Month: Independent Time-Bound Data Dependent Parent and
Reject Mass Windows (INTAMS) |
|
 |
Using INTAMS has
several benefits:
- Parent and reject masses can now be
defined independent of method segments.
- Each mass entry
has its own start and end time.
- Separate parent and
reject mass tables can be defined for positive and negative
polarity modes.
- Up to 20,000 masses can be assigned to
each parent and reject mass table. |

Mycotoxins in Cattle Forages and Food
Matrices |
|
| Mycotoxins are toxic
metabolites produced by certain species of fungi that infect
and colonize various agricultural crops in the field and
during storage. Environmental factors such as temperature and
humidity influence the occurrence of these toxins on grains,
nuts and other commodities susceptible to mold infestation. In
addition, any crop that is stored for more than a few days is
a target for mold growth and mycotoxin formation. Most
mycotoxins... |

| Obtaining Meaningful
Data from Mass Spectrometry is Critical |
|
 |
Mass spectrometry
is instrumental in simplifying complex protein mixtures by
identifying unknown compounds, quantifying known compounds, or
providing information on the structure and chemical properties
of molecules. Regardless of the method used, significant
sample handling and processing is often required to perform
the desired analysis and receive meaningful data. This issue
of Previews highlights several MS sample prep products,
including abundant protein removal kits, protein stains,
digestion kits, sample clean-up tools, ion pairing reagents
and crosslinking reagents.

| Transcend™ Systems
for Online Sample Preparation and Ultra-Fast
Chromatography |
|
| Transcend Systems combine
the power of online sample extraction, using our patented
TurboFlow® technology, with the speed of ultra-fast
chromatography for the fastest and cleanest analysis. The new
systems eliminate SPE, LLE, or PPT, minimize ion suppression,
offer better resolution, faster analysis, increased
sensitivity, and can quadruple the throughput of one mass
spectrometer. As a result, it takes chromatography standards
to new heights. When configured with the TSQ Quantum, the
system delivers fast and efficient quantitative results with
the lowest ion suppression and chemical noise, resulting in
highly sensitive bioanalytical methods, development of more
robust methods, and reduction in analytical failures. |
