Technology
State-of-the-art hyphenated Mass Spectrometry
Our technology and services employ
the following instrumentation
TIMS-TOF-MS (Bruker), UPLC-Premier qTOF-MS (Waters)
Xevo TQD MS/MS (Waters), API 3200 with ESI and APCI probes (ABI Sciex)
ABI Sciex 150 LC-MS
Acquity (Waters), Elute (Bruker) with a variety of detectors HPLC Alliance Waters with PDA and fluorescence detector
EVOQ TQ (Bruker) including liquid injection, HS and SPME capabilities
Further to these, special software is used, and validated in collaboration with software developers, and bespoke algorithms are developed for data mining. Through the analyses of thousands of real samples metabolite databases with concentration reference ranges have been established for aminoacids, organic acids, ceramides, fatty acid,s acyl carnitines and other biomarkers. Our findings have been presented in various conferences, meetings and have been published after peer reviewing.
