Protein Analysis

Methodology

• Amino acid analysis
• Sequence analysis of peptides with MS/MS
• Electrospray mass spectrometry of biopolymers

Applications

• Determination of free amino acids and amino sugars in diverse samples
• Determination of the amino acid composition and content of peptides and proteins in diverse samples
• Quality control of synthetic peptides
• Sequence determination of peptides
• Protein identification in the protein database using amino acid patterns, partial sequences or peptide mass finger printing

Equipment

• Summit HPLC (Dionex)
• LTQ Orbitrap XL mit nano ESI (Thermo)
• Autoflex Smartbeam III MALDI-TOF-MS (Bruker)
