The Orbitrap Exploris 480 mass spectrometer enables highly sensitive and accurate protein identification in complex mixtures. It is well suited for in-depth global analyses using both DDA and DIA acquisition methods, and supports targeted quantification via PRM. The facility houses three of these instruments.
- The Orbitrap Eclipse Tribrid mass spectrometer enables highly sensitive and accurate protein identification in complex mixtures. It supports Electron Transfer Dissociation (ETD), allowing detailed analysis of labile post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation and glycosylation. The instrument is compatible with PRM for targeted quantification and is the platform of choice for TMT (tandem mass tag) experiments using MS3-based methods.
