Mass Spectrometry – News and Features

Researchers have illuminated the role of chaperone proteins in protein folding in unprecedented detail using cryo-electron tomography.

A new technique may help reveal unknown benefits of existing drugs, according to a new study. The new approach, called decryptE, could help identify new applications for already approved drugs and take steps toward precision medicine.

Technology Networks joined Agilent Technologies for a discussion about new advances in gas chromatography at this year’s ASMS conference.

Researchers from The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) have found that early life exposure to “forever chemicals” permanently disrupts the gut microbiome in mice, potentially increasing the risk of developing metabolic disease later in life.

Technology Networks joined Agilent Technologies for a discussion about the company’s latest product launches at this year’s ASMS conference.

Technology Networks recently spoke with Dr. Holly Lee and Dr. Craig Butt from SCIEX to learn more about the analytical challenges of detecting PFAS and SCIEX’s 7500+ system to aid developments in mass spectrometry.

Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin have developed a way to fingerprint "forever chemicals", which could help authorities trace them to their source when they end up in aquifers, waterways or soil.

Scientists have taken a fresh approach to finding a way to target neuroblastoma, the most common solid tumor of infancy. Their novel gene target could offer hope for finding alternative treatments with fewer long-term side effects.
