Separations is a fundamental scientific discipline focused on the isolation and purification of components from mixtures. Through techniques such as chromatography, distillation, and filtration, separations scientists separate substances based on their physical or chemical properties. This field plays a crucial role in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, food and beverage testing, environmental science, materials research, and more. Explore how separations techniques enable precise analysis, quality control, and the development of innovative products.
Enzymatic digestion of proteins in polyacrylamide gel slices and subsequent analysis of the peptides by mass spectrometry has become a routine procedure in protein analysis. In solution digestion protocols for bottom-up proteomics complement it. The DigestPro MSi automates all those procedures to achieve high throughput under controlled and reproducible conditions.
