Revolutionizing Proteomics
Rapidly performing global proteomic screens is an important goal in the post-genomic era. AmberGen has developed a patented method (Bead-AMS™) combining matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) with fluorescent imaging of bead-arrays. This method enables rapid screening of a large bead-protein library for interactions with a variety of prey molecules including drugs, serum antibodies/autoantibodies or proteomic digests such as cell lysates:
