Mass Spectrometry
The cores listed below are located at Harvard Medical School, affiliated institutions or other Harvard Schools.
The Thermo Fisher Center offers quantitative protein expression profiling. The Center uses high resolution mass spectrometer (Orbitrap Fusion™ Tribrid™ Mass Spectrometer) and isobaric tandem mass tags (TMT) to quantify protein or phosphopeptide expression from cells, tissues or immunoprecipitated protein samples. Currently the TMT technology allows for the analysis of 6 - 11 samples within a single experiment by sample multiplexing. This allows us to study several conditions in a single experiment. The services are provided to the HMS community as well as external users.
