MicrobMatcher: a microbial comparison software based on matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization with time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Teaching Microbial Identification with Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and Bioinformatics Tools†

Pushing the Limits of MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry: Beyond Fungal Species Identification

Matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight (MALDI-TOF) is a powerful analytical tool that has revolutionized microbial identification. Routinely used for bacterial identification, MALDI-TOF has recently been applied to both yeast and filamentous fungi, confirming its pivotal role in the rapid and reliable diagnosis of infections. Subspecies-level identification holds an importan...

BioSunMS: a plug-in-based software for the management of patients information and the analysis of peptide profiles from mass spectrometry

BACKGROUND With wide applications of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF MS), statistical comparison of serum peptide profiles and management of patients information play an important role in clinical studies, such as early diagnosis, personalized ...

Reduced graphene oxide films used as matrix of MALDI-TOF-MS for detection of octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin.

A reduced graphene oxide (rGO) film was used as the matrix in the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectroscopy (MALDI-TOF-MS) for the detection of octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (OCDD) with a detection weight as low as 500 pg.

MALDI-TOF MS Coupled with Collision-Induced Dissociation (CID) Measurements of Poly(methyl methacrylate)

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS) is one of themost fundamental analysis techniques for proteins, peptides, and synthetic polymers to date. Along with field desorption (FD), fast atom bombardment (FAB), laser desorption coupled with time-of-flight (LD-TOF), secondary ion mass spectrometry coupled with time-of-flight (SIMS-TOF), and electr...
