4 unusual facts about Mass spectrometry


AGML

AGML 2.0 data structure can store data, both gel and mass spectrometry, and experimental methods through the use of MI2DG.

Dehydrogenative coupling of silanes

Routine MS and GC-MS spectroscopy do not provide useful data for these substrates.

Hyphenation

Hyphenation (analytical chemistry), the (online) coupling of analytical separation and detection technologies, e.g. Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS).

Ion-mobility spectrometry–mass spectrometry

Earl W. McDaniel has been called the father of ion mobility mass spectrometry.


Albert J.R. Heck

Albert J.R. Heck (born November 25, 1964, Goes, Netherlands) is a Dutch scientist and professor at Utrecht University, the Netherlands in the field of mass spectrometry and proteomics.

Bioanalysis

The most frequently used techniques are: liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) for 'small' molecules and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for macromolecules

Data binning

For example, data binning may be used when small instrumental shifts in the spectral dimension from MS or NMR experiments will be falsely interpreted as representing different components, when a collection of data profiles is subjected to pattern recognition analysis.

John H. Hoffman

John Hoffman received his bachelor's degree from St. Mary's College in Winona, Minnesota and continued his education at the University of Minnesota under the mentorship of Professor A. O. C. Nier who pioneered the field of mass spectrometry.

Monoisotopic

Monoisotopic mass is a term from mass spectrometry, and usually refers to the atomic weight of a molecule calculated using (for each element) the atomic weight of the most naturally abundant isotope of that element.

Photoelectron photoion coincidence spectroscopy

Photoelectron photoion coincidence spectroscopy, PEPICO for short, is a combination of photoionization mass spectrometry and photoelectron spectroscopy.
