Objective of Seminar Mass spectrometry (MS) is among the most important analytical tools as well as a fast developing research area in chemical, biological, and forensic sciences. The versatility of MS techniques in addressing divergent issues has attracted the researchers’ attention in the recent past. However, in spite of the rapid advances in MS, this has remained elusive and out of reach to majority of the scientific community due to the prohibitive cost of the equipment as well as its up-keeping. There is a need to increase awareness among the prospective users of this technique. The invited lecturers are all international experts and will expound the current state of mass spectrometry with the highlights of hot topics and potential future course of advances in mass spectrometry.


Topics to be covered Application of Hyphenated Mass Spectrometers in

1. Organic Chemistry
2. Natural Products/Herbals/Ayurveda/Plant Metabolomics
3. Proteomics
4. Quantitative analysis, Drug metabolism and Pharmacokinetics applications
5. Instrumentation/Troubleshooting

Objective of Workshop The proposed workshop will provide a golden opportunity to experience the state of the art MS techniques and initiate lively discussion among veteran research scientists, academicians and budding researchers to share their knowledge and strike collaborations in the frontier areas of chemical and biological sciences. The beginners will get a chance to familiarize themselves
with mass spectrometric techniques and gain confidence by seeing its applications and data interpretation as done in real situations.

Topics to be covered

Day one
1. Basics & Applications of Mass Spectrometry
2. Instrumentation
3. Interpretation

Day Two
1. Practical demonstration & Discussion on various Mass Spectrometers viz LCMS, MS/MS and DARTMS.
