Description
Organization Overview
The Proteomics Resource Center (PRC) at The Rockefeller University masters many aspects of liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry applied to metabolomics and proteomics. Examples include de novo sequencing, and quantitative analysis based on label-free quantitation as well as heavy isotope labeled samples. The PRC is equipped with Orbitrap-type mass spectrometers (high resolution/high mass accuracy) and can separate analytes using both nano and high-flow liquid chromatography. The Center is a source for help with planning of mass spectrometry-based experiments, and it has the capability to offer in-depth collaborative analysis. Also, the PRC is operated in a boutique style, encouraging the scientists of the Center to work closely with users to create a tailored approach to fit the many unique questions that can be answered by analytical mass spectrometry. The Center is equipped with multiple high-performance servers for data analysis.
