Immuno-Mass Spectrometry Workflow for Quantification of Serum α-Fetoprotein Using Antibody-Immobilized Magnetic Beads and Modified Eluents
Yoshio Takahata, Misato Hara, Kouhei Nishino, Takao Kawakami
Immuno-mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful method for the quantitative analysis of low-abundance proteins in biological specimens. In these procedures, collecting specifically and efficiently the target protein antigens from the antigen–antibody complex generated on the surface of nanocarrier beads is crucial and

Effect of Phosphorylation on the Collision Cross Sections of Peptide Ions in Ion Mobility Spectrometry
Kosuke Ogata, Chih-Hsiang Chang, Yasushi Ishihama
The insertion of ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) between LC and MS can improve peptide identification in both proteomics and phosphoproteomics by providing structural information that is complementary to LC and MS, because IMS
