Surface-enhanced laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SELDI TOF-MS) and ProteinChip technology in proteomics research.
In this review article, we describe some of the studies that have been performed using the surface-enhanced laser desorption ionization (SELDI) time-of-flight mass spectrometry and ProteinChip technology over the past few years, and highlight both their findings as well as limitations. Proteomic applications, such as target or marker identification and target validation or toxicology, will be addressed. We will also provide an examination of SELDI technology and go into the question of where possible future research may lead us.
