The Laboratory for Biological Mass Spectrometry (LBMS) provides
expertise in mass spectrometry to all TAMU research activities.
This includes the analysis of organic compounds ranging from
small molecules to large biological molecules including
proteins, DNA, RNA, and natural products. To accomplish the
research objectives, the LBMS maintains a complete invetory of
routine and cutting-edge mass spectrometers. In addition, the
LBMS research scientists are actively involved in the
development of new analysis methods and techniques and the
development of next-generation instrumentation for analysis and
sample handling, including robotics and microfluidics. The
activites within the LBMS are divided into three categories: (i)
core research, (ii) applications, and (iii) training and
dissemination. |
