Ultraflex 3 maldi tof tof mass spectrometer

Manufactured by Bruker
Sourced in Germany, United States

The Ultraflex III MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometer is a versatile laboratory instrument designed for high-performance mass spectrometric analysis. It utilizes matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and time-of-flight (TOF) technologies to provide accurate mass measurements and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) capabilities for the identification and characterization of a wide range of analytes.

Unmodified (∼49 μM) and N-terminally acetylated recombinant, uncleaved HttQ44-SUMO (∼33 μM) in sizing buffer were diluted 1:10 using Milli-Q water. The diluted sample was then mixed with matrix consisting of saturated sinapic acid solution in a mixture of 30% acetonitrile and 70% Milli-Q-grade water containing 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid. MALDI mass spectra were collected using a Bruker Ultraflex III MALDI-TOF-TOF mass spectrometer with a molecular weight window of 5 to 21 kDa.

MALDI-TOF/TOF Mass Spectrometry Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bruker Ultraflex III MALDI-TOF/TOF mass Spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics, Leipzig, Germany) operating in reflectron mode with a 20 kV accelerating voltage and 23 kV reflecting voltage. A saturated solution of α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid in 50% acetonitrile and 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid was used as the matrix. The matrix solution (1µl) and sample solution at a ratio of 1:1 was applied onto the Score384 target well. A standard peptide calibration mix in the mass range 800-3,200 Da (Bruker Daltonics) was analyzed for external calibration of the mass spectrometer. The calibration mix contained: Angiotensin II, angiotensin I, substance P, bombesin, ACTH clip 1-17, ACTH clip 18-39 and somatostatin 28. A series of eight samples were spotted around one external calibration mixture. The SNAP algorithm (S/N threshold: 5; Quality Factor Threshold: 30) in Flex Analysis 3.0 (Bruker Daltonics) was used to identify the 100 most prominent peaks in the mass range m/z 700-4,000. The subsequent MS/MS analysis was performed in a data-dependent manner and the five most abundant ions fulfilling certain preset criteria (S/N higher than 3 and Quality Factor higher than 30) were subjected to high energy collision-induced dissociation analysis. The collision energy was set to 1 keV and nitrogen was used as the collision gas.

MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry of Digestion Products

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Digestion products from the SGF assays were analyzed by Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight (MALDI TOF) mass spectrometry. Samples were pre-incubated with 0.5 μl of 40 mM DTT for 20 min on the ground steel plate to reduce disulfide bonds. The samples were subsequently mixed with 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) and the mass to charge ratio was measured for each sample using a Bruker Daltonics Ultraflex III MALDI-TOF/TOF Mass Spectrometer.

Bovidae Protein Identification via MALDI-TOF

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Peptide masses of the samples were obtained using an Ultraflex III MALDI TOF/TOF mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics, Bremen, Germany) and then screened against the Bovidae database deposited in UniProt using the MASCOT program (Matrix Science, London, UK) and a MASCOT Peptide Mass Fingerprinting database search. An accuracy of 0.5 Da was used in the search criteria. Trypsin was set as an enzyme with one allowed miscleavage. The fixed modification and variable modification factors used were carbamidomethyl and oxidation, respectively. The numbers of peptide matches, sequence coverage, molecular weight (MW), and isoelectric point (pI) were used to evaluate the database search results. The Scaffold program (Proteome Software, Portland, OR) was used to validate the proteins identified by the MASCOT program, with the identity for both proteins and peptides equal to 100%.
Protein abundance was quantified by spot densitometry analysis using ImageMaster 2D Platinum Software (GE Health Care, Little Chalfont-UK). The software used powerful algorithms for efficient spot detection, accurate spot quantification, and an accurate statistical comparison of spot density across gels.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
