Today's Separation Science Award Session
This morning, the ACS Division of Analytical Chemistry Award for Young Investigators in Separation Science will be presented to Michael Roper of Florida State University.
This morning, the ACS Division of Analytical Chemistry Award for Young Investigators in Separation Science will be presented to Michael Roper of Florida State University.
Roper is an associate professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Florida State University and a member of the Molecular Biophysics Program. Roper’s group develops new methods and techniques to investigate biological signaling. Specifically, the group has developed multiplexed electrophoretic immunoassays to simultaneously measure the release of insulin, glucagon, and islet amyloid polypeptide from islets of Langerhans. They are now incorporating these assays on microfluidic devices using novel optical detection tools to increase the temporal resolution of peptide release.
The symposium honoring Roper will be held today at 8:30 am in room S401a, and will include talks from Roper as well as from Alan Marshall of Florida State University, Stephen G. Weber of the University of Pittsburgh, Susan M. Lunte of the University of Kansas, and Norman Dovichi of the University of Notre Dame.
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.
