🔍 AI-assisted error detection: By comparing a video of an experiment to the baseline protocol, our agent detects common mistakes. It found 3/4 of all errors in our benchmark dataset, though domain-specific knowledge & spatial recognition need improvement. #GenerativeAI #QualityControl 3/🧵

Methods selection simplified: One robust method covers all standard proteomics samples. For modified peptides like #phosphoproteomics #peptidomics #HLA specialized methods (orange) are essential. Why? Chemical properties dictate precursor behavior. 7/🧵

Fine-tuning PASEF:
1) Optimal DIA isolation windows maximize precursor cloud coverage.
2) Short cycle times (500ms with synchro-PASEF) ensure high reproducibility.
3) Need enhanced sensitivity? Longer TIMS accumulation captures low abundant ions.

⚡️ synchro-PASEF: Our newest scan mode uses a super-fast moving quadrupole for high selectivity with up to precursor resolution - keeping all advantages of DDA & DIA. Result: 2-3x faster cycle times than dia-PASEF (only 500ms) AND superior quantitative reproducibility. #synchroPASEF #DIA 4/🧵

dia-PASEF: Optimal DIA isolation windows in both m/z AND ion mobility space maximize precursor coverage. Our optimized methods capture nearly the entire precursor cloud in shorter cycle times - giving you a robust method with deep proteomes. #diaPASEF #DIA 3/🧵

#PASEF 's magic: By decoupling ion accumulation from mass detection, PASEF captures nearly ALL ions with high sensitivity. Plus, ion mobility separation gives you cleaner spectra by sorting precursors & fragments in an extra dimension. Less overlapping peaks! #timsTOF #Bruker 2/🧵
