A recent webcast by Charles Pineau, Director of Protim, IRSET, Rennes, France, demonstrates how you can use the OneOmics™ Platform as a “Click & Easy” workflow for integrating next-generation proteomics (NGP) data with next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. Dr. Pineau and his colleagues are interested in gaining new insights into human spermatogenesis and understanding the dialogue between germ cells and somatic cells. In previous research using rat samples, over 1400 unannotated transcripts were identified. Subsequent proteogenomic studies then showed that some of those transcripts encoded for novel proteins. The data analysis for that research was performed using the open source EMBOSS suite of tools.
In the current study, the researchers were interested in analyzing human samples and developing a more simplified workflow for data analysis. Using the SCIEX TripleTOF® 6600, and the Illumina HiSeq 2500, over 1100 new potential transcripts were identified with more than 2 peptides at FDR < 1%. The OneOmics Platform was used for data processing and analysis. Compared with the previous open source EMBOSS suite of tools used in the rat studies, the OneOmics Platform was about 75x faster. Additionally, another major benefit using the OneOmics Platform was the relative ease with which the data could be analyzed compared with the previous workflow which required extensive user customization by writing scripts and formatting files. This enabled the researchers to focus on the biology rather than the complications associated with formatting datasets and transformation of files. Ongoing studies are taking a subset of candidates and validating them using MRM studies, qPCR, and immunohistochemistry.

Whether we are raising glasses of rosé in a vineyard in France or enjoying a lager in a casual street restaurant in China, it is likely that the last thing on many people’s minds is the chemical risks from their beverage. Unless you work in food science, then it might actually be the first thing.
As PFAS regulations tighten globally, laboratory managers are navigating a complex economic landscape. Whether operating in a commercial or non- commercial setting, the pressure to deliver accurate, defensible, and timely PFAS data is mounting. At SCIEX we understand that the right technology can turn this regulatory challenge into a strategic opportunity.
The Echo® MS+ system is a novel platform for Acoustic Ejection Mass Spectrometry (AEMS) and combines the speed of acoustic sampling with the selectivity of mass spectrometry. This platform has been designed for high throughput analysis of small and large molecules. The technology combines Acoustic Droplet Ejection (ADE), an Open Port Interface (OPI) and could be coupled with the SCIEX Triple Quad 6500+ system or the ZenoTOF 7600 system.
