Presentation CSOB group

The research projects developed in this team are based on mass spectrometry experiments. This technique is a powerful analytical tool which enables detection and quantification of chemicals, but it is also a method of choice to study gas phase species.

Our team is developing two lines of research.

• Analytical aspect of mass spectrometry with methodological development
• Development of more fundamental themes such as the elucidation of reaction mechanisms or the characterization of interactions in biological systems.

To perform experiments, we have the following instrumental fleet:

High resolution mass spectrometers

ESI ou nano-ESI/FT-ICR 7T Solarix XR Bruker n(R = 3 000 000, m/z 200)

MALDI/TOF autoflex III Bruker (R = 20 000)

LC ESI ou DESI/LTQ Orbitrap Thermo Scientific (R = 100 000, m/z 400)

TimsTOF Pro (R = 70 000)

Low resolution mass spectrometers

TLC Quattro LC (R = 1000)

ESI/Triple Quadrupole Quatro II Waters (R = 1000)
