A versatile analytical tool used in fields ranging from clinical diagnostics to forensics, mass spectrometry is increasingly finding its way into the biochemistry clinic. Its original roles in drug ...
A mass spectrometer is a complicated and expensive piece of equipment -- so complicated and so expensive, in fact, that most undergraduate chemistry students never get a chance to use one. Now ...
Laura-Isobel McCall, Ph.D., and Zhibo Yang, Ph.D., co-principal investigators and associate professors of chemistry and biochemistry in the Dodge Family College of Arts and Sciences at the University ...
At $1 million, many schools cannot afford the latest spectrometry equipment to help students conduct experiments such as determining the composition of a polymer, detecting the presence of cocaine in ...
Although this app may have been designed primarily for scientists who work in the field of mass spectrometry-based proteomics, it turns out to be a handy reference for any life scientist. The app is ...
University of Illinois chemistry professor Alexander Scheeline has developed software that turns a camera phone, an LED, and a few other cheap tools into a spectrometer. Armed with these, he thinks we ...
A Skoltech scientist has raised the world's only isotope-labeled guinea pig. For 156 days, the animal, named Khryun, was given only heavy water to drink. Such water is non-radioactive and has long ...
Our lab uses a novel system for high-throughput screening of protein degradation in the cell. Instead of relying on the cumbersome method of radiolabeling, cycloheximide treatment, and Western ...
