# PRINCIPLES OF MALDI-TOF MS The matrix/reagents used in this method is composed of what?
SATURATED LOW IONIC ORGANIC MASS | in short, BIOMASS
177
# PRINCIPLE OF MALDI-TOFF MS After mixing reagents with the samples, you transfer it to the ________________________
MALDI-TOF MS PLATE
178
# PRINCIPLE OF MALDI-TOF MS TOF. After mixing samples and transferring it to the MALDI-TOF MS plate, next step is to analyze it in the microscope
F. automated identification
179
What is the defining feature of MALDI-TOF MS as compared to other molecular techniques?
- extracts purified proteins - extraction method is already mixed into the matrix (specifically extracts protein of the bacterial sample)
180
# PRINCIPLE OF MALDI-TOF MS TOF. Bacterial sample/Clinical sample at first has no charge/it is in neutral charge
T
181
# MALDI-TOF MS PRINCIPLE What provides the charge to the samples?
Matrix (satured low ionic organic mass/ biomass) | provides **protons**
182
# PRINCIPLE OF MALDI-TOF MS measures the net charge produced during the procedure.
Ionization process
183
# PRINCIPLES OF MALDI-TOF MS MAIN PRINCIPLE OF MALDI-TOF
SOFT IONIZATION
184
# MALDI TOF SOFT IONIZATION IS MEASURED THRU?
MS PROFILE (PATTERNS)
185
# MALDI TOF TOF. MS profiles of each bacterium is identical from one organism to another
f (unik)
186
In MALDI-TOF assay, the most important consideration during the procedure is
sample preparation
187
# MALDI-TOF SAMPLE PREP main consideration in the prep of sample?
isolate a purified protein
188
# MALDI-TOF protein can be purified by mixing what?
specific reagents | eme **formic acid** ## Footnote sabi nila depends on bacterium pero formic acid parin naman gamit
189
# MALDI-TOUGH TOF. for better extraction, methanol is added
