Automated Component Detection and Matrix Analysis of Time Resolved MS data - Analysis of Wine Volatiles by GC/MS
The process of determining components by hand, particularly minor components in unknown samples, from GCMS and LCMS data is tedious, time consuming and may be subjective from day to day and from analyst to analyst...
Characterization of Blood VOCs By GC/MS
Exposure to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from a variety of natural and anthropogenic sources is ubiquitous in an area of public health concern. Estimating exposure to environmental toxicants is complicated by variables in human absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion...
Automated Data Analysis of Complex Arson Samples
The investigation of suspected arson cases is both a time and labor-intensive operation; not only is the work highly repetitive in nature, but very large volumes of data are generated which need to be reviewed. The characterization of pure flammable liquids is a relatively simple task...
Analyzing High Resolution Mass Spectrometer Data
Traditionally high resolution mass spectrometers have been expensive and complicated to use. The primary uses for high resolution mass spectrometry were for molecular mass confirmation and elemental composition elucidation of a single compound...
Analysis of Data from Different Mass Analyzers
Mass spectrometer analyzers can be divided into two broad classes, which are scanning and point in time instruments. In scanning instruments, such as a quadrupole or magnetic sector, ions are selected serially and passed to the detector...
A Metabolomics Study of Plasmodium Falciparum Infection of Red Blood Cells in the Absence and Aresence of Antimalarials
Malaria remains a scourge of the developing world, killing over a million people each year and infecting around 500 million. Most victims live in sub-Saharan Africa, but the disease also afflicts Southeast Asia, South America and the Indian subcontinent...
Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis of Complex Samples
Traditionally the analysis of complex mixtures by various analytical techniques has either been qualitative, trying to assess what is in a sample by use of a mass spectrometer and library searches, or quantitative, where the analysis has usually been conducted in an extremely targeted manner, with non target components being ignored...
Metabolite Peak Identification and Data Structure in a Multi-Site, Large Scale Metabolomics Experiment
If metabolomics approaches are to have true utility in Functional Genomics programmes it will be important to tackle several important areas…
Chromatographic Fingerprinting and Comparative Analysis for Chemical Profiling by Mass Spectrometry
Simple plotting techniques were developed for visualization of complex chromatographic data sets. The techniques were applied to metabolite profiling data from microbial samples analyzed by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS)…
The use of GC/MS to Determine Water Quality
The determination of the quality of water is an important public health and environmental issue; therefore it is important that the analysis be conducted in a reliable and reproducible manner. Traditionally samples are analysed against a list of target compounds…
The Use of Mass Spectrometry to Monitor the Effect of Genetic Modifications on the Metabolism of Yeast
With the advent of both the human genome project and the science of genomics there has been great advances in the level of knowledge about genes and gene function. Several species of plants, animals and microorganisms have now had their genomes fully mapped…
Rapid and Automated Identification of Components in Petroleum Based Samples
Analytical science has changed over recent years, as instrument technology has improved it has become possible to detect lower and lower levels of compounds and separate more and more complex mixtures…
