Labelled IMS-TAG proteins for quantitative mass spectrometry imaging
A technique to reduce the need for animal testing in pre-clinical research is being developed. In previous projects that looked at protein change in tumours after anti-cancer drug administration, researchers needed to be able to measure changes in protein levels to provide clinicians with an accurate picture of how tumours respond to treatment. “Under the usual method you would need around 25 mice for testing, but by using mass spectrometry imaging, only one mouse would be needed,” Professor Clench said.
