Technology type 'Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry'

Samples obtained form the central fermentation facility of Sulfosys have been compared using iTRAQ (isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantification). A pilot experiment resulted in creation of SOP and initial data on cells grown at 70 and 80C

26 intracellular metabolites (amino acids, polyamines, TCA intermediates) in T. brucei exposed to methylene blue have been absolutely quantified using isotope ratio based MS technique.

26 intracellular metabolites (amino acids, polyamines, TCA intermediates) in T. brucei under pH stress (pH8.7) have been absolutely quantified using isotope ratio based MS technique.

Extracellular metabolites in T. brucei at different stage of cell growth have been quantified absolutely by isotope ratio based MS technique using uniformly 13C-labelled E. coli extract. This is the case study for method development of absolute quantification for metabolic flux analysis.
