摘要:
The present invention provides methods and primer pairs for rapid, high-resolution forensic analysis of DNA and STR-typing by using amplification and mass spectrometry, determining the molecular masses and calculating base compositions of amplification products and comparing the molecular masses with the molecular masses of theoretical amplicons indexed in a database.
摘要:
There is a need for nucleic acid analysis which is both specific and rapid, and in which no nucleic acid sequencing is required. The present invention addresses this need, among others by providing a method of nucleic acid amplification of overlapping sub-segments of a nucleic acid followed by molecular mass measurement of resulting amplification products by mass spectrometry, and determination of the base compositions of the amplification products.

摘要:
The present invention provides mass spectrometry-based methods for high throughput identification of molecules with functional activities such as nuclease, protease, reductase, kinase, phosphatase, or transferase activities towards biomolecular targets. These methods are useful for screening biological samples such as extracts, broths, lysates and natural product mixtures and provide valuable insights into biomolecular interactions of various biological ligands with biomolecular targets.
摘要:
The present disclosure is related to improved systems and methods for delivering samples for high-throughput mass spectrometric analysis to an atmospheric-pressure ionization source. In an exemplary embodiment, the system includes a solvent reservoir for storing a solvent solution, a first valve which is coupled to the solvent reservoir, first and second pumps for delivering solvent solution and which are coupled to the first valve and which the delivery flow rate of the first pump is greater than the delivery flow rate of the second pump, an injection system having a sample injector and an second valve which is coupled to the first valve and which is capable of being coupled to can be couple to an electrospray ionization source. In another embodiment, the system can also include an atmospheric-pressure ionization chamber, an atmospheric-pressure ionization sprayer and a nebulizer gas source and a voltage supply source. In yet another embodiment, the system may further include a puffer valve that is coupled to the nebulizer gas source and the atmospheric-pressure ionization sprayer and a gas puffer that is coupled to the puffer valve. A distal end of the gas puffer may be located within the atmospheric-pressure ionization chamber and aligned with the distal end of the atmospheric-pressure ionization sprayer and the puffer valve may control the delivery of the nebulizer gas to the atmospheric-pressure ionization sprayer and the gas puffer.
