Lab-on-a-robot
US chemists have developed a lab-on-a-robot that is able to navigate to a specific spot, acquire an air sample, perform the analysis (injection, separation, and detection) and send the data to a different location.

Just express yourself
By managing to cram all the components required for analysing gene expression in individual cells into a single microfluidic device, US scientist have shown that seemingly identical cells can actually differ in quite surprising ways.

Proteomic analysis of membrane proteins expressed specifically in pluripotent murine embryonic stem cells
To identify membrane proteins involved in the regulation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs), Japanese scientist have studied the membrane proteins of mouse ESCs using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis.

Mass Spectrometry in Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics

This timely reference discusses mass spectrometry in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic studies. With contributions by professionals from the pharmaceutical industry, this book begins with a review of current mass spectrometry techniques and applications, followed by discussions of various methods for using MS in drug metabolism studies and pharmacokinetics.

Highlighting the critical importance of ADME studies for understanding how a drug is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted by the body, the book s focuses on the use of LC/MS and MALDI-MS. This is a valuable reference for scientists in the pharmaceutical industry, medicine, academia, and even those working in homeland defense.
