Harris County lab shows quick peptide screening with inlet and paper‑spray ionization
A Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences researcher demonstrated rapid inlet ionization and paper‑spray techniques that produced presumptive peptide identifications (including human growth hormone fragments and smaller peptides) and could give prosecutors faster leads while noting standards and confirmation still required.
The full story
Kyle Burks of the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences demonstrated a set of rapid mass‑spectrometry approaches that forensic labs can use to presumptively identify high‑mass peptides, including intact human growth hormone and smaller research peptides, without switching to a full electrospray source.
