The SCAT series of collection tubes have been developed specifically to minimise in vitro artifact by rapidly quenching unwanted protease activity.
High-definition MS system
06 March, 2008 | Waters Australia Pty Ltd
As a tool, conventional mass spectrometry is a good method for differentiating between proteins with different masses. However, as different folded forms of a particular protein have identical masses, it is virtually impossible to differentiate them by conventional means. That's where the Waters Synapt HDMS system and its embedded ion mobility technology can help.
