Discrimination of Lipids in Heart Tissue using DESI HRMS MSI
Mass Spectrometric Imaging (MSI) using DESI provides molecular imaging without the interference of the matrix required for MALDI and offers the advantage of preserving sample for further analysis. DESI coupled to High Resolution Accurate Mass (HRAM), is shown here to elucidate spatial distribution of lipids, protein, and metabolites in tissue sections and can provide confident and discriminate biomarker determinations.
Poster Presentation - RISE imaging of various phases of SiC in sintered silicon-carbide ceramics
November 12th 2024In this poster presentation applications manager Ute Schmidt discusses the use of correlative Raman-SEM (RISE Microscopy) imaging for analyzing silicon-carbide (SiC) ceramics. The main focus of the work is investigating the distribution of sub-micron structured polytypes of SiC grains on and below the surface.
FT-IR gas analysis of coal-to-ethylene glycol process
October 31st 2024Coal-to-ethylene glycol is the process by which ethylene glycol is synthesized from coal instead of traditional methods using petroleum as the raw material. This study demonstrates that Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) can be a reliable alternative to simultaneously measure methyl nitrite and other process gases (such as CO and NO) using a single ABB analyzer.
