Seth is on a roll 😎, the man has published/co-published three papers in the last 3 months 🫡👷. For ion-ion reaction aficionados - Parallel valet parking: selective ion escape over an AC barrier during ion/ion reactions in a quadrupole linear ion trap cdnsciencepub.com/doi/full/1…

Congratulations to our entire cohort of third-year students, specially Mr. Ellin and Zuzu (Boukar). Interestingly, all those guys started their program together. Classic example of team effort 👌 👌🏿. Hope you enjoy the reading 😁.

Recently, we developed a couple of methods to aid in the mass analysis of proteins dissolved in physiologically relevant conditions. Now, we are showing why it is important to preserve proteins native environment. The conformational dynamics simply change. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

It is a pleasure for us to announce that our dear Sam recently started a postdoc position at @EliLillyandCo. She will be scientifically entertained in the Protein Synthesis Lab 🤓. We wish her a successful postdoc 😀. Have fun and learn a lot Sam 🤗!

Starting with a simple desire to improve reproducibility of the spectra, we found out significant improvements on repeatability, S/N, FWHM (less metal ion adduction), and robustness. If you are interested in small proteins, the house suggests going all-in solution additives

Now, if you are interested in relatively high MW proteins (466 kDa tested in our work), please use small portions. The thing can be sticky. We explained the recipe in the manuscript. Happy reading!

It's (e)lit! We have a new article about the homebuilt nested ELIT, which allows for an extended mass range while also maintaining higher resolution. Read below to see how it works! doi.org/10.1016/j.ijms.2025.…

In this work, we apply DDC to doubly-charged bradykinin. However, using an MCP can result in ions with different charges being detected at different efficiencies, which leads to incorrect calculations. How do we account for this? Find out below! doi.org/10.1016/j.ijms.2025.…
