"The Targeted Metabolomics and Proteomics Laboratory (TMPL) is organized to provide a variety of analytical and technical services using mass spectrometry to UAB investigators. The laboratory has six mass spectrometers - a MALDI-TOF instrument (ABSciex DE-Pro), two triple quadrupole instruments (ABSciex 3200 and 4000) and a quadrupole-linear ion trap instrument (ABSciex 4000Qtrap), a quadrupole-TOF (ABSciex 5600) and a Varian gas chromatography-MS. The ABSciex 5600 is particularly powerful for comprehensive and targeted proteomics, lipidomics and metabolomics. The Varian GC-MS is particularly suited to aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbons for the investigation of Gulf Oil Spill contamination."
Two fourier transform-ion cyclotron resonance instruments - supported by NCRR grants - are in the Biomedical FT-ICR Mass Spectrometry Laboratory (http://www.uab.edu/BiomedFTICR/). Contact Dr. Matt Renfrow about use of these instruments (renfrow@uab.edu; 205 996-4681).
