The ClinProt™ MALDI-TOF-based mass spectrometry solution is an integrated set of tools designed to provide clients with innovative and enabling tools for the preparation, measurement, and visualization of protein biomarkers for clinical proteomics. Profile spectra protein/peptide fractions which have been separated using ClinProt magnetic beads are acquired using an AutoFlex™ or Ultraflex™ mass spectrometer in the linear or reflectron mode. The superior sensitivity and resolution of these instruments produce mass spectra with high information content. The AutoExecute™ acquisition control program enables automated operation with unsurpassed results. Potential biomarker peptides discovered by ClinProtTools™ software can be identified by a subsequent fragment analysis of the same sample using the TOF/TOF capabilities of an AutoFlex TOF/TOF or Ultraflex. Biomarker discovery and peptide map identification on a single instrument is a true reality. See www.bdal.com
