Young of Baylor College of Medicine (Houston, Texas); and Eleanor Browne, of the University of Colorado, Boulder. The awards will be presented on Tuesday, June 4, at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia.
The Research awards promote the research of academic scientists within the first four years of joining the tenure track or research faculty of a North American university at the time the award is conferred. These awards, in the amount of $35,000 for each winner, are fully supported by Bruker, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and Waters Corporation.
Callie Cole of Fort Lewis College (Durango, Colorado) is the winner of the 2019 Primarily Undergraduate Institution Research Award, also to be presented on June 4. The $20,000 award, sponsored by Agilent, promotes academic research in mass spectrometry by faculty members and their students at primarily undergraduate institutions. It is given to the recipient’s institution on behalf of the recipient’s research.
Monitoring 5-Fluorouracil Levels in Dried Blood Spots with UHPLC-MS/MS
May 3rd 2024Researchers have utilized ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UH PLC-MS/MS) to monitor 5-Fluorouracil, a medication used to treat various cancers, in dried blood spots. This process offers a simpler, more efficient method than those in place involving the monitoring of plasma.
