We are specialized in the development of advanced analytical methods utilizing mass spectrometry techniques

Our mass spectrometers are equipped with various ionization sources, including ESI (Electrospray Ionization) and APPI/APCI (Atmospheric Pressure Photoionization/Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionization), allowing for versatile sample analysis, coupled with Orbitrap high-resolution analyzer, as well as a linear ion trap for MSn experiments.   We also utilize two chromatography systems, primarily employing reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) and hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) columns for optimal separation. However, we also employ specialized stationary phases whenever necessary for specific studies.

Our laboratory is also equipped with a MALDI ToF/ToF instrument for proteomic and metabolomic analysis. In addition to that, we have a GC-MS instrument for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. 

This combination of instruments allows us to employ a wide range of analytical techniques for comprehensive and in-depth research in various fields of study.


Opportunities for undergraduate or graduate thesis positions are available!
