Thermo Fisher Scientific (California, USA) has collaborated with Immunodiagnostik (Bensheim, Germany) to develop novel assays for the commercial qualitative and quantitative analysis of protein and peptide biomarkers in disease diagnosis
Thermo Fisher Scientific (California, USA) has collaborated with Immunodiagnostik (Bensheim, Germany) to develop novel assays for the commercial qualitative and quantitative analysis of protein and peptide biomarkers in disease diagnosis.
The collaboration seeks to further biomarker research, by combining the antibody-based detection technology developed by Immunodiagnostik with the liquid–chromatrography tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS–MS) analytical technology from Thermo Scientific. The companies hope to enable the development of assays specifically for the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease and bone metabolism disorders. Furthermore, Immunodiagnostik will utilize its academic and clinical network connections to allow the validation of developed assays.
“We are impressed with Immundiagnostik’s antibody expertise, and are confident that the immunoaffinity-purification of proteins will take quantitative LC–MS–MS protein analysis to the next level,” said Jeff Zonderman, Thermo Fisher director of clinical and toxicology LC–MS.

LC–MS/MS-Based System Used to Profile Ceramide Reactions to Diseases
April 26th 2024Scientists from the University of Córdoba in Córdoba, Spain recently used liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) to comprehensively profile human ceramides to determine their reactions to diseases.
High-Throughput 4D TIMS Method Accelerates Lipidomics Analysis
April 25th 2024Ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS) had been previously proposed for untargeted lipidomics analysis, but this updated approach was reported by the authors to reduce run time to 4 min.
