Fall 2010
This thesis describes the application of mass spectrometry (MS) to glycoprotein and oligosaccharide analysis. Glycosylated proteins are involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix recognition. Applications of trypsin and proteinase K to hydrolyze glycoproteins into glycopeptides that are compatible...

Differential 15N2-/14N2-isotope Dansylhydrazine Labeling and LC-MS for Quantification of the Human Carbonyl Metabolome
DownloadFall 2011
The objective of this work was the design and use of paired labeling reagents that are chemically identical but isotopically different to provide a simple and robust means of quantitative mass spectrometry (MS) based metabolome profiling. Herein is presented the differential 15N2-/14N2-isotope...

Development and Application of ESI-MS Based Techniques for Quantitative Determination of Protein-Carbohydrate Interactions
DownloadFall 2016
This thesis describes the development and application of mass spectrometry methods to study protein-ligand interactions in vitro. Liquid sample desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (liquid sample DESI-MS) was employed to quantify protein-carbohydrate interactions in aqueous buffer...

Development of Isotope Labeling Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry for Biofluid Metabolomics and Applications in Disease Studies
DownloadSpring 2014
Metabolomics is a research field focusing on global study of all the metabolites present in a biological system (i.e., the metabolome). Metabolome analysis involves identifying and quantifying as many small molecule metabolites as possible in a biological sample. Metabolomics has attracted much...

Application of Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry to Study Protein-Ligand Interactions and Enzyme Kinetics
DownloadFall 2015
This thesis describes the development and application of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) to study the noncovalent protein-ligand interactions and also investigate the kinetic of enzymatic reactions. The rate of glycolipids cleavage by the human neuraminidase 3 (hNEU3) was...

Development of Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry Methods for the Identification and Quantification of Acylcarnitines in Biological Samples
DownloadFall 2012
The field of metabolomics follows the Greek premise where metabolic changes are believed to be indicative of disease. Acylcarnitines, for example, can be dysregulated in the presence of various diseases including genetic metabolic disorders and multiple sclerosis. Liquid chromatography mass...

Development and application of mass spectrometry for bioanalysis of proteins and metabolites
DownloadSpring 2011
The proteome, a hybrid term from protein and genome, is the total set of proteins expressed by a genome in a cell, tissue, or organism at a given time. Proteomics, the study of the proteome, is concerned with a variety of topics such as identity, quantity, activity, structure, protein-protein...

Spring 2016
The simultaneous quantification of all biological molecules, from metabolites to proteins, holds the key to discovering molecular signatures that can diagnose diseases before irreversible damages have occurred in the body. Recent advances in the field of liquid chromatography coupled mass...
