Software demonstrations
Metabolomics analyses typically involve very large sample sets, resulting in the production of complex data outputs. To fully extrapolate meaningful biological information, large sample sets must be run to obtain statistical significance. Metabolomics data analysis typically consists of feature extraction, quantitation, statistical analysis and compound identification.
It was great seeing those who stopped by our booth to learn more about our metabolomics data analysis software, including Compound Discoverer 3.4, Trace Finder, and Mass Frontier Spectral Interpretation software.
Lunchtime seminar
Quantify what you know, discover what you don’t … SQUAD workflows powered by Orbitrap
Simultaneous Quantitation and Discovery (SQUAD) analysis workflows leverage the advantages of Thermo Scientific Orbitrap mass spectrometers. The Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Astral Mass Spectrometer unlocks additional insights into biology and disease mechanisms by utilizing two HRAM detectors, used in parallel, for efficient merging of both targeted and untargeted studies.
Thank you for joining us for two informational lectures covering:
- The hardware design and functional impact of the Orbitrap Astral in your metabolomics and lipidomics research
Alexander Makarov, Sr. Director Global Research, LSMS, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Bremen, Germany - Orbitrap Astral SQUAD methodology applied to the study of healthy aging lipidome
Magali Sarafian, Manager D'Activité Métabolomique Et Protéomique, Bioaster, Lyon, France
Oral presentation
Orbitrap-based Metabolomics Workflows: Discover. Innovate. Exceed.
Presented by Susan Bird, Vertical Marketing Senior Manager, Thermo Fisher Scientific
Abstract: The field of Metabolomics has been advancing at an impressive rate, inspiring key analytical innovations designed to keep pace with the biological needs of a study. Despite these advances, analytical challenges remain around high-confidence detection and annotation of low abundance compounds in complex biological matrices. Thermo Fisher Scientific is committed to advancing the field of metabolomics through intelligence driven data acquisition, streamlined software processing strategies and key hardware innovations that keep at pace and push beyond the current analytical demands of the field. In this presentation, learn about the enhanced dynamic range (eDR) scanning mode of a novel modified Orbitrap Hybrid MS. eDR is designed to extend the dynamic range of MS full scan measurements by dividing the mass range into narrow windows, in an automated approach, which results in decreasing the saturating impact of high abundant species while improving the signal-to-noise ratios and increasing the quality of low low-abundance metabolites. With this approach, we can extend the range of the metabolites we detect and confidently identify leading to greater insights into important compounds previously undetected using full scan alone.
