Novel 4D lipidomics workflow

Bruker has announced advances to ultra-high sensitivity 4D lipidomics workflows on the timsTOF Pro and timsTOF fleX platforms using LC-TIMS-MS/MS. Optimisation of PASEF 4D lipidomics methods now enables the number of identified lipids in single-shot analysis to be almost doubled, whilst obtaining attomole sensitivity. This innovative workflow uses nanoLC-TIMS-PASEF to quantify approximately 500 lipids with very high quantitative accuracy and reproducibility from just a few thousand cells, in addition to building a library of more than 1000 accurate CCS values from human plasma, mouse liver and human cancer cells.
