Mass Spectrometry Applications for Proteomics
Jeffrey Perkel | Aug 19, 2001 | 10+ min read
Click to view the PDF file: Proteomic Mass Spectrometry Equipment Courtesy of CiphergenCiphergen's SELDI process, a MALDI variant that includes a surface-based enrichment step Early in the twentieth century, scientists puzzled over the observation that certain elements that were otherwise physically indistinguishable from each other nevertheless exhibited different radioactive decay characteristics. These elements would ultimately come to be known as isotopes, but at the time this concept was
Monoclonal Antibodies Find Utility In Cell Biology
Ricki Lewis | Dec 11, 1994 | 10+ min read
But, just as antibodies are finding increasing utility in cell biology, a new Food and Drug Administration classification for those products with clinical utility may affect researchers' access to the important technology (see accompanying story). Monoclonal History MAbs were born in 1975, when Georges Kohler and Cesar Milstein at the Medical Research Council Laboratories in Cambridge, England, fused two types of cells to form a hy

Surpassing the Law of Averages

By Jeffrey M. Perkel Surpassing the Law of Averages How to expose the behaviors of genes, RNA, proteins, and metabolites in single cells. By necessity or convenience, almost everything we know about biochemistry and molecular biology derives from bulk behavior: From gene regulation to Michaelis-Menten kinetics, we understand biology in terms of what the “average” cell in a population does. But, as Jonathan Weissman of the University of Califo

Designing a More Accurate Protein Census
Douglas Steinberg | Apr 1, 2001 | 4 min read
Graphic: Leza BerardoneApplied Biosystems will soon begin testing new mass spectrometry machines designed to identify proteins in as many as 1,000 samples per hour. For the machines to work as planned, however, each sample must be prefractionated down to just a handful of proteins, according to Stephen A. Martin, director of the company's proteomics research center in Framingham, Mass. This example suggests how the slower protocols leading to mass spec are as important to the progress of proteom

New Technology Spurs on Proteomics
Jennifer Fisher Wilson | Apr 1, 2001 | 7 min read
Graphic: Leza BerardoneOne recent morning at the Applied Biosystems proteomics research center in Framingham, Mass., scientist Jason Marchese patiently used a pipettor to place tiny samples onto a 2-inch-by-2-inch plate. He was surrounded by technology as simple as 2-D gel electrophoresis apparatus and as cutting-edge as a high-throughput system that uses automated robotics for multidimensional liquid chromatography separation of proteins and an automated workstation that uses the latest in mass
Capillary Electrophoresis Gains Acceptance As Applications Increase
Howard Goldner | May 1, 1995 | 10 min read
Through the years, a variety of separation techniques have been used by researchers in their continuing challenge to accurately separate and identify analytes of interest from complex mixtures. Numerous procedures, physical as well as chemical, conducted in an assortment of vessels, are often used to achieve this goal. During the past 25 years, column techniques such as gas chromatography (GC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) have led to successful separation and identification
