New Orbitrap Fusion Lumos Tribrid Mass Spectrometer (Thermo Scientific) has been installed at the Proteomics Core Facility, CEITEC MU. The new instrument equipped by three mass analyzers (a quadrupole, linear ion trap, an Orbitrap) and four fragmentation techniques (CID, HCD, ETD, EThcD) significantly improves our capabilities and flexibility in data dependent and data independent acquisition modes.
New technologies (such as Advanced Peak Determination or Synchronous Precursor Selection) bring large increase of the number of peptides and proteins identified and improve accuracy in quantitative studies using isobaric mass tags (TMT).
The purchase of the instrument was financed from the European Regional Development Fund-Project „CIISB4HEALTH“ (No. CZ.02.1.01/0.0/0.0/16_013/0001776).
This is a reminder to apply for the Instruct-ERIC R&D Pilot Call - get funding of up to €15,000!
Closing 14:00 CEST on 15 April, the Instruct-ERIC R&D Funding Call invites early career researchers to submit proposals to access Instruct technology, equipment, and expertise from our 27 facilities across Europe for small scale pilot research projects in integrated structural biology.
Register now for the 32nd edition of the Instruct-ERIC Structure Meets Function webinar series, taking place on Zoom, 17 April at 11:00 CEST.
The latest webinar will have two speakers who have accessed the Instruct-ERIC facilities, expertise, and machinery via the ISIDORe project.
