Instrumentation
The projects described in Research Interests are being carried out on
mass spectrometers located in Dr. Li's research laboratory and in the chemistry department mass spectrometry facility as
well as at the Institute for Biomolecular Design in the medical school.
Equipment in Dr. Li's laboratory:
- Waters/Micromass Q-TOF Premier with an ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) and an electrospray ionization source
- MDS-Sciex QSTAR Pulsar quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer equipped with a MALDI source
- MDS-Sciex QSTAR XL quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer equipped with
a high performance MALDI source
- Finnigan LCQ Deca ion trap mass spectrometer with a Surveyer HPLC and an electrospray ionization
source
- Finnigan LCQ Advantage LC/ion trap mass spectrometer with an Agilent 1100 HPLC
and an electrospray ionization source
- Bruker Reflex III MALDI reflectron time-of-flight mass spectrometer
- Bruker Esquire 3000 plus ion trap mass spectrometer with an Agilent 1100 HPLC
system and an electrospray ionization source
- HP-Bruker Esquire ion trap mass spectrometer with an Agilent 1100 HPLC and an
electrospray ionization source
