Thermo Scientific™ uPAC™ Neo HPLC Columns – Pushing Proteomics Boundaries with micro-Pillar Chromatography

On-demand

Though the increase in sampling depth and proteome coverage can be accomplished by rapid advances in mass spectrometer technology, appropriate selection of nano LC column is critical to provide MS instruments with peptides separation at the highest possible resolution. Recently introduced Thermo Scientific micro pillar array column (µPAC) offers proteomics researchers with enhanced chromatographic performance, stability, and robustness in their nanoLC-MS workflows. In this webinar, we will present the next generation Thermo Scientific µPAC Neo columns, specifically designed to further push the nanoLC separations to achieve deeper proteomic coverage with shorter runtime.

What will I take away from the event?

  • Learn about micro-Pillar Array Column (µPAC) technology.
  • See how to best employ µPAC Neo columns in your nanoLC-MS workflow.
  • Overcome challenges like retention time stability and robustness in your nanoLC chromatography.

Pedro Aragón Fernández

PhD student, Technical University of Denmark

Pedro Aragón holds a bachelor’s and master’s degree in biochemistry from the Technical University of Munich (TUM). He developed an interest in analytical chemistry for biological applications and continued to pursue a PhD in the Cell Diversity Lab supervised by Dr. Erwin M. Schoof at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). His current work focuses on the development and implementation of novel preparative and analytical strategies for mass spectrometry-based single-cell proteomics to understand the synergy displayed by phenotypically distinct subpopulations in the hematopoietic system.
