Characterization and Collision Cross Section Determination of Obesity Related Lipids Within Mouse Models Using Travelling Wave IMS-QTOF Mass Spectrometry
Characterization and Collision Cross Section Determination of Obesity Related Lipids Within Mouse Models Using Travelling Wave IMS-QTOF Mass Spectrometry
9 Aug 2015This poster demonstrates the characterization of the liver cell lipid complement using ion-mobility and associated collision cross section (CCS) databases, obtained with a novel geometry travelling wave IMS-QTOF MS platform, for obese mouse models which have undergone treatment to prevent or reverse obesity. Obesity is a risk factor associated with metabolic syndrome, and can be affected by manipulation of glucosylceramide levels, through treatment with glucosylceramide synthase inhibitors.

Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.

Animal ModelsThe use of non-human animals in experiments or behavorial observations. The research is conducted inside universities, medical schools, pharmaceutical companies, farms, defence establishments, and commercial facilities that provide animal-testing services to industry. It includes pure research such as genetics, developmental biology, behavioral studies, as well as applied research such as pharmaceutical testing in pre-clinical, before human, studies. MetabolomicsMetabolomics is the study of small metabolites (the intermediates and products of metabolism). It involves the identification and quantification of cellular metabolites using analytical technologies such as GC, HPLC, NMR, and LC/MS.InhibitorsLipidomics
