A proteomics laboratory at the Max Planck Institute for Biochemistry in Martinsried, Germany, will replace all installed LC instruments with Proxeon's Easy-nlc nanoscale chromatography systems.
The laboratory's aim is to standardise the performance of its liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) system configurations.
Professor Matthias Mann, head of the laboratory, said: 'Our laboratory runs multiple large-scale projects often requiring weeks or months of analysis time.
'With nine high resolution LC-MS systems already in use and further expansion expected in the coming year, we wanted to standardise on a smoothly running, high performance configuration and replicate that across our entire laboratory.' Easy-nlc systems and Proxeon's nano ES ion sources will be used exclusively with the laboratory's Thermofisher mass spectrometers.
