Recently, mass spectrometry methods have been developed ... the detection of microbial nucleic acids allows for the efficient analysis of bacteria and viruses. Moreover, sequence analysis of ...

Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics studies are probing everything proteins do: the signaling pathways in which they participate, the other proteins and nucleic acids with which they interact ...

They also bind to small molecules, lipids, and nucleic acids. The Scientist asked researchers who have applied mass spectrometry to a number of such interactions for the lowdown on their techniques.

Researchers at the Department of Organic Chemistry and the Center for Molecular Biosciences (CMBI), led by Kathrin Breuker, have been awarded funding for a state-of-the-art mass spectrometer in a ...

"Until now, mass spectrometry has been the gold standard for measuring ... This can be achieved by refining aptamer development at the nucleic acid level—a degree of specificity that will be necessary ...

A recent study described develops methods for synthesizing and quantifying metal-induced glycation products, particularly in French fries, with phytic acid as a natural chelating agent (NCA). LCGC ...
