DESCRIPTION:







Metabolite Identification with the Q Exactive and LTQ Orbitrap Elite
Please email for registration information: bmtc@contacts.bham.ac.uk






Course Overview
 This 2-day course provides a hands-on approach to teach attendees about the latest techniques and tools available to perform metabolite identification in non-targeted metabolomics studies. The course is led by experts working within the field of metabolomics, and will include a significant proportion of hands-on experience of using mass spectrometers, software tools and databases. A maximum of four people will be working on each mass spectrometer (Q Exactive and LTQ-Orbitrap Elite) in a session.\n











Topics Covered

Importance of mass spectral interpretation
Types of data which can be collected on the QE and LTQ-Orbitrap Elite (m/z, retention time, MS/MS, MSn)
Conversion of raw data to molecular formula and putative metabolite annotations
MS/MS experiments in metabolic phenotyping for on-line data acquisition using the QE (Data Dependent Analysis, Data Independent Analysis)
MS/MS and MSn experiments for sample fractions using the LTQ-Orbitrap Elite
Mass spectral libraries (using mzCloud)
Searching mass spectral libraries
Tools for mass spectral interpretation
In silico fragmentation (using MassFrontier)
Reporting standards for metabolite identification
Question and answer session with the experts

 \n "I enjoyed the practical part very much. "Learning by doing" is first of all very effective but the whole session was also a great opportunity to ask about some more specific practical parts of the metabolomics approach."\n Rikke\n
 "I enjoyed how hands on everything was - and how it was geared specifically towards the questions we had on our own research... Overall I thought it was excellent and I learned a ton."\n Rachel\n
 "The practical part was great and very dynamic. It was the first experience I had ever had and it resulted in a very promising contact with the new field."\n Diego\n
