Biomarker Discovery Directly from Tissue Xenograph Using High Definition Imaging: MALDI Combined with Multivariate Analysis

8 Oct 2014

In this application note, the authors demonstrate the use of high definition MALDI imaging combined with multivariate analysis in studying changes in the proteome on xenograph tissues sections over time, after administering an anti-cancer drug.

MALDI SYNAPT G2-Si High Definition Mass Spectrometry

Waters

Redefining Resolution - Resolution in 3 Dimensions. MALDI SYNAPT G2-Si is a uniquely powerful and versatile MS platform. It's the only way to combine multiple dimensions of separation for analysis of complex samples, from imaging to biological research to chemical materials characterization. The MALDI SYNAPT G2-Si gives you high performance, accurate mass MALDI MS/MS, superior post-ionization separation with T-Wave IMS, High Definition Imaging (HDI) MALDI workflows, versatile experimental options, and the ultimate UPLC/MS/MS performance.

MassLynx MS Software

Waters

Acquire, Analyze, Manage, and Share Mass Spectrometry Information MassLynx™ Software increases the speed at which you can convert your sample data into valuable knowledge. It provides you with the fundamental platform to acquire, analyze, manage, and share your mass spectrometry information. MassLynx intelligently controls any Waters mass spectrometry system, from sample and solvent management components to mass spectrometer and auxiliary detectors. MassLynx Software may acquire nominal mass, exact mass, MS/MS and exact mass MS/MS data. MassLynx’s Sample List is the core of the system. It maintains and consolidates the data on all of your samples. You also initiate any activities related to your sample from the Sample List. This "sample centric" approach simplifies the interaction with your LC/MS or GC/MS system, acquired data and processed results. Process Application-specific Data MassLynx Software features general purpose and specialized Application Managers that provide information for your specific MS analyses and data. Two come standard with MassLynx: QuanLynx™ for automated quantification included as standard with MassLynx OpenLynx™ for qualitative screening and identification Optional Application Managers can perform: Targeted quantitative analysis Mass-directed purification Metabolite identification Deconvolution of complex chromatograms Metabonomics & metabolomics Protein identification and protein characterization
