Automated proteomics sample prep: Realizing the need for higher throughput, robustness, and standardization
The lack of standardization and throughput in proteomics sample preparation has caused limitations within the field. Indeed, according to published reports, sample preparation traditionally accounted for 75% of the overall variability.
Automating the universal ProtiFi S-Trap™ proteomics sample preparation system with the Tecan Resolvex® A200 directly addresses this issue to yield a standardized, high-throughput proteomics workflow suitable for preparing all samples reproducibly, including samples that may contain additional contaminants such as surfactants in bioreactor supernatants.
In this webinar, Dr. John P. Wilson, Ph.D. and Dr. John D. Laycock, Ph.D., will share how to use the affordable, small-footprint A200 and S-Trap™ 96-well plates to quickly and easily prepare samples for proteomics analysis without further method development.
Join this free expert webinar to learn:
- What the Tecan Resolvex®A200 is, how it operates, and how easy it is to use
- The traditional difficulties and importance of reproducible sample preparation
- How the combination of the A200 and the S-Trap™ sample preparation system affords a standardized, universal system that provides high reproducibility and throughput at low cost without change of protocol
Who should attend:
- All scientists and end users, regardless of skill level, who are in or wish to conduct proteomic sample preparation
- All scientists and end users who use the multi-attribute method (MAM) in the development, quality control, and production of biological drugs
- All scientists and end users who seek a standardized solution to the difficulties in proteomics sample preparation
Presenter: Dr. John P. Wilson (Founder and CEO, ProtiFi)
Dr. John P. Wilson, Ph.D., is Founder and CEO of ProtiFi, an omics-solutions innovator with the goal to bring precision omics to life™, originally spun out of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL). Dr. Wilson has dedicated his career to developing new transformative technologies to increase the speed, robustness, and reproducibility of omics analyses. Technologies include the S-Trap and Si-Trap sample preparation systems, the engineered Tryp-N enzyme, and SimpliFi, ProtiFi's cloud-based, intuitive omics analysis platform. He received his Ph.D. from the Rockefeller University and postdoced at CSHL with Prof. Dr. Darryl J.C. Pappin, a founder of the field of proteomics.
Presenter: Dr. John D. Laycock (Director of Technology and Product Development, Tecan SP)
John D. Laycock is the Director of Technology and Product Development at Tecan SP in Baldwin Park, CA. He attended the University of Florida and completed a dissertation in the area of tandem mass spectrometry of porphyrins and received a PhD in 1994. He joined the Center of Human Toxicology in 1995 as a Postdoctoral Associate responsible for introducing LC-MSMS methodologies to the lab utilizing GC-MS as the primary bioanalytical tool. He joined Amgen in Thousand Oaks, CA in 1998 where he was responsible for setup of the first small molecule GLP bioanalytical lab there. While at Amgen, he implemented laboratory automation, LIMS, and informatics to holistically streamline workflows for bioanalytical sample analysis and reporting throughout all stages of drug development. In 2015 he joined SPEware which was acquired by Tecan in 2016..With Tecan he has been responsible for launch of the Resolvex A200 and various chemistry consumable products into the global marketplace.
