For many areas of biology and biochemistry, high-resolution mass spectrometry has become an invaluable tool to examine the composition of cells and tissues. In this proposal, we apply for a high-resolution liquid-chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) system, which will be integrated into the Mass Spectrometry Core Facility of the University of Leipzig's Faculty of Life Sciences. While this core facility runs instruments specialised in the analysis of proteins and peptides, the requested LC-MS system will allow the discovery and quantification of metabolites in complex cellular extracts. The new instrument is required by several research groups for a number of projects, including the analysis of secondary metabolites from microalgae, the investigation of the role of chemodiversity role in land plant-herbivore interactions, or the reliable detection of trace amounts of analytes in complex mixtures (e.g. herbicides in waste water). In addition, the requested instrument requires an extended mass range (m/z 50 to 6000) in order to characterise large intact proteins with a molecular weight of up to 150 kDa. The new LC-MS system will accelerate existing research projects at the University of Leipzig's Faculty of Life Sciences and facilitate the establishment of new collaborations and research consortia.

对于生物学和生物化学的许多领域来说，高分辨率质谱已成为检查细胞和组织组成的宝贵工具。在本提案中，我们申请了高分辨率液相色谱质谱（LC-MS）系统，该系统将集成到莱比锡大学生命科学学院的质谱核心设施中。虽然该核心设施运行专门用于蛋白质和肽分析的仪器，但所需的 LC-MS 系统将允许发现和量化复杂细胞提取物中的代谢物。多个研究小组的许多项目都需要这款新仪器，包括分析微藻的次生代谢物、研究化学多样性在陆地植物与草食动物相互作用中的作用，或者可靠地检测复杂环境中的痕量分析物。混合物（例如废水中的除草剂）。此外，所需的仪器需要扩展的质量范围（m/z 50 至 6000），以便表征分子量高达 150 kDa 的大型完整蛋白质。新的 LC-MS 系统将加速莱比锡大学生命科学学院现有的研究项目，并促进新的合作和研究联盟的建立。
