New methods for feed control in a circular economy
New method developed at IMR Varunjikar, Rasinger and Belghit, together with Magnus Palmblad at the Leiden University Medical Center, have been developing one of the novel methods that were used in the study, called spectral library matching. This method uses mass spectrometry (MS) – a tool for detecting the chemical signature of different molecules by their mass spectra – to identify proteins. “We can create a library of spectra, which can then be used to find a match for the unknown analyzed materials,” explains Varunjikar. “This method has been used to detect prohibited material i...
