Mass spec analysis of peptides and proteins


The analysis of protein is central to drug development, especially in case of biopharmaceuticals. Since proteins are indispensable to all biomedical systems, it is essential to identify them accurately along with their quantification and quality assessment. This therefore necessitates that the test instrument must be highly sensitive, accurate and offers a broad dynamic range. The analysis of peptides and proteins by mass spec provides highly accurate information on molecular weight on intact molecules, which is extremely useful for protein identification, characterization and quantification. Mass spec is an indispensable tool for analysis of proteins and peptides owing to its speed, sensitivity and versatility.

At VIMTA, we offer High Resolution Mass Spectrometry (HRMS) for structural characterization of protein therapeutics (synthetic and recombinant peptides) which provides highly accurate analysis including assessment of quality attributes of protein therapeutics.
