Ion Sources and Sample Introduction
Sample probes and matrix for MALDI
MALDI matrix
# A nonvolatile solid material that absorbs the laser
radiation resulting in the vaporization of the matrix
and sample embedded in the matrix.
#The matrix also serves to minimize sample damage
from the laser radiation by absorbing most of the
incident energy and the matrix is believed to facilitate
the ionization process.

ICAT™
Protein ID and Quantification Process
ProICAT provides Protein Identification and Quantitation information
ICAT™ Features & Benefits
• Overcomes some of the limitations of 2D Gels.
• Ability to quantify membrane proteins.
• ID and quantify low abundance proteins.
• Broader range of protein MW or pI.
• Allows for greater automated/higher throughput approach in the
simultaneous quantification and identification of proteins.
• Reduces complexity of analysis of protein digest -only cysteine
containing peptides.
• Applied Biosystems ‘Systems Approach’ for ICAT Technology
including ICAT reagents, software and support.
